ADJACENCE [8 records]

Record 1 2007-01-31

English

Subject field(s)
  • Optics
  • Remote Sensing
DEF

[An effect] due to scattering of light from surrounding surfaces into the line of sight between an observed surface and sensor position.

CONT

In the atmospheric correction of satellite data in the visible and near-infrared bands, it is necessary to remove the adjacency effect due to the reflection from contiguous pixels. Evaluation of the influence of aerosol vertical distributions on the adjacency effect is done by calculating the single-scattering light intensity which, after the reflection at the ground surface, reaches the satellite sensor via a single scattering with a molecule or an aerosol particle.

OBS

adjacency effect: term officially approved by the RADARSAT-2 Terminology Approval Group (RTAG).
