Four radiometric correction methods for the reduction of slope-aspect effects in a Landsat TM data set are tested in a mountainous test site with regard to their physical soundness, their influence on a forest classification as well as on the visual appearance of the scene. Excellent ground reference information and a fine resolution DEM allowed a precise assessment of the applicability of the ...

As the core and foundational technology, on-orbit radiometric calibration of a space-borne sensor is of great importance for quantitative remote sensing applications. As for the space-borne multi-camera mosaic imaging sensor, however, the currently available on-orbit radiometric calibration method cannot carry out the integrated processing of on-orbit absolute radiometric calibration and relati...

Introduction: Human activities, such as mining, result in the elevation of natural ionizing radiation in the environment. Jos-Plateau, Nigeria, including Kuru-Jos has experienced commercial tin mining in the past, and local mining is still being practiced in this area. Therefore, it is important to assess the radiation exposure due to grown crops and the farm soils in ...
