Since its launch in May 2013, the in-orbit radiometric performance of PROBA-V has been continuously monitored. Due to the absence of on-board calibration devices, in-flight performance monitoring and calibration relies fully on vicarious calibration methods. In this paper, the multiple vicarious calibration techniques used to verify radiometric accuracy and to perform calibration parameter upda...

The MICs of the macrolide clarithromycin for 31 clinical isolates of Mycobacterium kansasii were determined by three different methods. The methods employed were the proportion resistance method on 7H10 agar, the radiometric (BACTEC) method, and the T100 method of datum analysis. All methods gave similar results. The MICs were in a narrow range from 0.16 to 0.50 microgram/ml, with the MICs for ...

Existing radiometric compensation methods are based on the assumption that the projection surface (screen) is Lambertian, i.e. there exists no specular reflection. Thus the methods cannot be applied to non-Lambertian surfaces which are ubiquitous in our everyday environment. In this paper, we try to faithfully display an image onto non-Lambertian surfaces using multiple overlapping projectors a...

Affected by the residual of time varying gain, beam patterns, angular responses, and sonar altitude variations, radiometric distortion degrades the quality of side-scan sonar images and seriously affects the application of these images. However, existing methods cannot correct distortion effectively, especially in the presence of seabed sediment variation. This study proposes a new radiometric ...

As part of a continuing effort to validate the radiometric scales assigned to integrating sphere sources used in the calibration of Earth Observing System (EOS) instruments, a radiometric measurement comparison was held in May 1998 at Raytheon/Santa Barbara Remote Sensing (SBRS). This comparison was conducted in support of the calibration of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MO...

In precision agriculture detailed geoinformation on plant and soil properties plays an important role. Laser scanning already has been used to describe in-field variations of plant growth in 3D and over time and can serve as valuable complementary topographic data set for remote sensing, such as deriving soil properties from hyperspectral sensors. In this study full-waveform laser scanning data...

Multimodal remote sensing approach is based on merging different data in different portions of electromagnetic radiation that improves the accuracy in satellite image processing and interpretations. Remote Sensing Visible and thermal infrared bands independently contain valuable spatial and spectral information. Visible bands make enough information spatially and thermal makes more different ra...
