The differences between Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 products, such as the reflectance at the top of atmosphere (TOA) and land surface, should be compared and evaluated to make sure they are spectrally consistent. Their consistency has been evaluated and the differences have been empirically corrected at mid-low latitudes, but in high latitude areas with a higher solar zenith angle (SZA), the similar work has not been explored. In this study, Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 TOA and surface reflectance in Alaska as well as some surface parameters, such as the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and normalized difference snow index (NDSI), were compared using the massive data distributed on Google earth engine (GEE) online platform, and their consistency was evaluated and the uncertainty was analyzed. Some empirical models were suggested to convert Sentinel-2 products to be consistent with Landsat-8 products at all bands. The results show that TOA reflectance is more consistent than surface reflectance in Alaska. This study suggests that the consistency between Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 at high latitudes should be paid more attention because their consistency is lower than that at mid-low latitudes.

Estimation of swell height using spaceborne GNSS-R data from eight CYGNSS satellites / Yanli Zheng in Remote sensing, vol 14 n° 18 (September-2 2022)  

Public [article]  inRemote sensing > vol 14 n° 18 (September-2 2022) . - n° 4640 Titre : Estimation of swell height using spaceborne GNSS-R data from eight CYGNSS satellites Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yanli Zheng, Auteur ; Fu Zheng, Auteur ; Cheng Yang, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 4640 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] données GLONASS [Termes IGN] données GPS [Termes IGN] double différence [Termes IGN] latitude [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] positionnement statique [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes IGN] temps de convergence Résumé : (auteur) The orbital inclination angle of the GLONASS constellation is about 10° larger than that of GPS, Galileo, and BDS. Theoretically, the higher orbital inclination angle could provide better observation geometry in high latitude regions. A wealth of research has investigated the positioning accuracy of GLONASS and its impact on multi-GNSS, but rarely considered the contribution of the GLONASS constellation’s large orbit inclination angle. The performance of GLONASS in different latitude regions is evaluated in both stand-alone mode and integration with GPS in this paper. The performance of GPS is also presented for comparison. Three international GNSS service (IGS) networks located in high, middle, and low latitudes are selected for the current study. Multi-GNSS data between January 2021 and June 2021 are used for the assessment. The data quality check shows that the GLONASS data integrity is significantly lower than that of GPS. The constellation visibility analysis indicates that GLONASS has a much better elevation distribution than GPS in high latitude regions. Both daily double-difference network solutions and daily static Precise Point Positioning (PPP) solutions are evaluated. The statistical analysis of coordinate estimates indicates that, in high latitude regions, GLONASS has a comparable or even better accuracy than that of GPS, and GPS+GLONASS presents the best estimate accuracy; in middle latitude regions, GPS stand-alone constellation provides the best positioning accuracy; in low latitude regions, GLONASS offers the worst accuracy, but the positioning accuracy of GPS+GLONASS is better than that of GPS. The tropospheric estimates of GLONASS do not present a resemblance regional advantage as coordinate estimates, which is worse than that of GPS in all three networks. The PPP processing with combined GPS and GLONASS observations reduces the convergence time and improves the accuracy of tropospheric estimates in all three networks.

A parameterization of the cloud scattering polarization signal derived from GPM observations for microwave fast radative transfer models / Victoria Sol Galligani in IEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing, vol 59 n° 11 (November 2021)  

Public [article]  inIEEE Transactions on geoscience and remote sensing > vol 59 n° 11 (November 2021) . - pp 8968 - 8977 Titre : A parameterization of the cloud scattering polarization signal derived from GPM observations for microwave fast radative transfer models Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Victoria Sol Galligani, Auteur ; Die Wang, Auteur ; Paola Belen Corales, Auteur ; Catherine Prigent, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 8968 - 8977 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image radar et applications [Termes IGN] image GPM [Termes IGN] image radar [Termes IGN] latitude [Termes IGN] modèle atmosphérique [Termes IGN] modèle de transfert radiatif [Termes IGN] nuage [Termes IGN] polarisation [Termes IGN] prévision météorologique [Termes IGN] radiomètre à hyperfréquence [Termes IGN] reconstruction du signal [Termes IGN] variation saisonnière Résumé : (auteur) Microwave cloud polarized observations have shown the potential to improve precipitation retrievals since they are linked to the orientation and shape of ice habits. Stratiform clouds show larger brightness temperature (TB) polarization differences (PDs), defined as the vertically polarized TB (TBV) minus the horizontally polarized TB (TBH), with ~10 K PD values at 89 GHz due to the presence of horizontally aligned snowflakes, while convective regions show smaller PD signals, as graupel and/or hail in the updraft tend to become randomly oriented. The launch of the global precipitation measurement (GPM) microwave imager (GMI) has extended the availability of microwave polarized observations to higher frequencies (166 GHz) in the tropics and midlatitudes, previously only available up to 89 GHz. This study analyzes one year of GMI observations to explore further the previously reported stable relationship between the PD and the observed TBs at 89 and 166 GHz, respectively. The latitudinal and seasonal variability is analyzed to propose a cloud scattering polarization parameterization of the PD-TB relationship, capable of reconstructing the PD signal from simulated TBs. Given that operational radiative transfer (RT) models do not currently simulate the cloud polarized signals, this is an alternative and simple solution to exploit the large number of cloud polarized observations available. The atmospheric radiative transfer simulator (ARTS) is coupled with the weather research and forecasting (WRF) model, in order to apply the proposed parameterization to the RT simulated TBs and hence infer the corresponding PD values, which show to reproduce the observed GMI PDs well.

A geographic information-driven method and a new large scale dataset for remote sensing cloud/snow detection / Xi Wu in ISPRS Journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing, vol 174 (April 2021)

In this paper, it is shown that such a group of records provides important priors for cloud and snow detection in remote sensing imagery. The intuition comes from some common geographical knowledge, where many of them are important but are often overlooked. For example, it is generally known that snow is less likely to exist in low-latitude or low-altitude areas, and clouds in different geographic may have various visual appearances. Previous cloud and snow detection methods simply ignore the use of such information, and perform detection solely based on the image data (band reflectance). Due to the neglect of such priors, most of these methods are difficult to obtain satisfactory performance in complex scenarios (e.g., cloud-snow coexistence). In this paper, a novel neural network called “Geographic Information-driven Network (GeoInfoNet)” is proposed for cloud and snow detection. In addition to the use of the image data, the model integrates the geographic information at both training and detection phases. A “geographic information encoder” is specially designed, which encodes the altitude, latitude, and longitude of imagery to a set of auxiliary maps and then feeds them to the detection network. The proposed network can be trained in an end-to-end fashion with dense robust features extracted and fused. A new dataset called “Levir_CS” for cloud and snow detection is built, which contains 4,168 Gaofen-1 satellite images and corresponding geographical records, and is over 20× larger than other datasets in this field. On “Levir_CS”, experiments show that the method achieves 90.74% intersection over union of cloud and 78.26% intersection over union of snow. It outperforms other state of the art cloud and snow detection methods with a large margin. Feature visualizations also show that the method learns some important priors which is close to the common sense. The proposed dataset and the code of GeoInfoNet are available in https://github.com/permanentCH5/GeoInfoNet.

Mitigating high latitude ionospheric scintillation effects on GNSS Precise Point Positioning exploiting 1-s scintillation indices / Kai Guo in Journal of geodesy, vol 95 n° 3 (March 2021)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 95 n° 3 (March 2021) . - n° 30 Titre : Mitigating high latitude ionospheric scintillation effects on GNSS Precise Point Positioning exploiting 1-s scintillation indices Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Kai Guo, Auteur ; Sreeja Vadakke Veettil, Auteur ; Brian Jerald Weaver, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 30 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] Antarctique [Termes IGN] atténuation du signal [Termes IGN] Canada [Termes IGN] erreur de positionnement [Termes IGN] latitude [Termes IGN] positionnement par GNSS [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] récepteur GNSS [Termes IGN] scintillation [Termes IGN] tempête magnétique Résumé : (auteur) Ionospheric scintillation refers to rapid and random fluctuations in radio frequency signal intensity and phase, which occurs more frequently and severely at high latitudes under strong solar and geomagnetic activity. As one of the most challenging error sources affecting Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), scintillation can significantly degrade the performance of GNSS receivers, thereby leading to increased positioning errors. This study analyzes Global Positioning System (GPS) scintillation data recorded by two ionospheric scintillation monitoring receivers operational, respectively, in the Arctic and northern Canada during a geomagnetic storm in 2019. A novel approach is proposed to calculate 1-s scintillation indices. The 1-s receiver tracking error variances are then estimated, which are further used to mitigate the high latitude scintillation effects on GPS Precise Point Positioning. Results show that the 1-s scintillation indices can describe the signal fluctuations under scintillation more accurately. With the mitigation approach, the 3D positioning error is greatly reduced under scintillation analyzed in this study. Additionally, the 1-s tracking error variance achieves a better performance in scintillation mitigation compared with the previous approach which exploits 1-min tracking error variance estimated by the commonly used 1-min scintillation indices. This work is relevant for a better understanding of the high latitude scintillation effects on GNSS and is also beneficial for developing scintillation mitigation tools for GNSS positioning.
