Abstract

The state of the atmospheric environment is related to the values of atmospheric path radiation in remote sensing data. As an important information resource, an atmospheric path radiation image derived from remotely sensed data can be used in many research fields. These include the research in the transmission properties of the atmosphere, the atmospheric modification of remote sensing image, the study of both regional and urban atmospheric environment, and the monitoring of the atmospheric environmental qualities. The principle and methodology for generating the heterogeneous atmospheric path radiation image are described in detail. It is based on known surface reflectance. Using remote sensing images from Shanghai City as a demonstration example, we briefly analyzed the properties of the resulting image of atmospheric path radiation. © 2005 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
