Snow accumulation is a significant factor for determining sources and amounts of seasonal runoff for a variety of applications. Most current estimates of snow depth, however, consist of manual (spot) measurements combined with weather models, and don't capture snow depth information at appropriate scales for regional forecasting or local use. Remote sensing data have the potential to determine snow...
Visible and Near-Infrared (VNIR) Multispectral and hyperspectral data are compared for their potential to assist with disaster response and recovery via detailed mapping of the distribution of specific surface materials. Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) data at two spatial resolutions are used to assess the effects of spatial resolution on material mapping capabilities. AVIRIS...
Remote mapping of night lights has been used for decades for mapping urbanization and the global distribution of human activity. Most of this has been accomplished using remote sensing data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP). The coarse spatial and spectral resolution of DMSP, however, has precluded discrimination of lighting types or spectral characteristics. Recent demonstrations...
