Outline

1. Radiometric in-field (vicarious) calibration

2. Different data processing schemes give you different results

3. How to keep track of all of that

▪ Radiometric calibration determines the transformation

from pixel values to the physically meaningful information

Spectral & radiometric calibration workflow

19.11.2019 3

Laboratory

RC1: relative calibration to uniform response

SC: spectral calibration estimates band configuration

DNn: normalized DN

RC2: absolute radiometric calibration to (at-sensor radiance)

Field

Transformation to reflectance factors

e.g. with the empirical line method (ELM)

▪ Radiometric calibration: Don’t use “field-spectroscopy like

calibration”

➢ Use empirical line + radiometric block adjustment or irradiance

sensor [1, 2]

Different processing modes give different results

▪ Blending disabled:

▪ viewing geometry close to nadir

▪ More proportion of soil

▪ Close to hemispherical directional reflectance factors (HDRF)

▪ Blending mode average

▪ Viewing geometry composed of sensor FOV

▪ Relatively more proportion of plant material

▪ Hemispherical conical reflectance factors (HCRF)
