This paper examines the accuracy of ODC estimated TB compared with a standard averaging technique. Because brightness temperatures cannot be independently verified, we constructed synthetic True TB for accuracy assessment. We assigned TB at a high spatial resolution (1 km) grid and computed the True TB by spatial averaging of the assigned TB to a lower resolution earth grid (25 km), selected to match the resolution of products generated from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for the Earth Observing System (AMSRE). We used the sensor antenna response function along with the 1km assigned TB to generate synthetic observations at AMSRE footprint locations. These synthetic observations were subsequently deconvolved in the ODC technique to estimate TB at the lower resolution earth grid. The ODC estimated TB and the simple grid cell averages of the synthetic observations were compared with the True TB allowing us to quantify the efficacy of each technique. In areas of high TB contrast (such as boundaries of water bodies), ODC performed significantly better than averaging. In other areas, ODC and averaging techniques produced similar results. A technique similar to ODC can be effective in delineating water bodies with significant clarity. That will allow microwave observations to be utilized near the shorelines, a trouble spot for the currently used averaging techniques.
