, quantitative, consistent, and timely. Airborne remote sensing with specialized infrared radiometers is now providing an unprecedented level of information on fire behavior and effects. The temperature, radiant intensity, carbon and sensible heat fluxes, and fuel consumption associated with the flaming front

The application of airborne and satellite remote sensing to terrestrial applications has been dominated by empirically-based, semi-quantitative approaches, in contrast to those developed in the marine and atmospheric sciences which have often developed from rigorous physically-based models

On the 16th of June 2003 a CASI (Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager) hyperspectral airborne remote sensing campaign took place above the Southern North Sea, just offshore of Oostende. In coincidence with the airborne overpasses seaborne measurements of water leaving reflectance and water

In support of the hyperspectral remote sensing campaigns and the APEX and MEDUSA sensor development projects, VITO has developed a dedicated experimental Central Data Processing Center (CDPC) for airborne earth observation data. The processing of imagery originating from airborne whiskbroom point

infra-red modelling. Results from the GENLN2 v4 line-by-line radiation model with the CKD2.4 water vapour continuum show very good agreement with airborne interferometer measurements in the thermal infra-red.

Abstract — Airborne remote sensing technology can be used to accurately monitor vineyards. In this paper we present a method to detect missing or dead trees. This is achieved by exploiting the periodic structure of a vineyard: equally spaced trees are planted in parallel rectilinear rows

Obtaining measurements of the near-surface soil water content from passive microwave observations requires knowledge of the soil effective temperature, which is a function of the soil temperature and moisture profiles. Detailed information on these profiles is not available from airborne remote

Optical interference coatings which have been successfully used in Chinese FY—l Meteorological Satellite and airborne remote sensing instrument are described. These include system requirement for these coatings, design approach, fabrication technique, and the actual results achieved. 1

quality parameters are retrieved from remote sensed images using successively; 1) a module calculating the subsurface reflectance spectra and 2) a module calculating the concentrations using specific inherent optical properties of the water constituents and the Gordon reflectance model implemented in a
