Development Status and Application Research of the Time Series Remote Sensing Data Products based on AVHRR,VEGETATION and MODIS
The global time series satellite remote sensing product has caught worldwide attention since it is developed. It is widely used in the global, intercontinental and regional dynamic monitoring of the surface features. It is also used to analyze the global changes by integrating with some climate change parameters (e. g. air temperature,precipitation). The contents and application areas of the time series remote sensing product extends greatly as the time series increases gradually and new sensors are constantly emerging. The development status of the currently international popular satellite remote sensing products (visible, near in- frared,short wave infrared and thermal infrared bands) are introduced in this paper. The satellite sensors mainly include AVHRR, VEGETATION, and MODIS. The early researches mainly focused on the basic data preparation,which concentrates on the band information of visible-near infrared band reflectance and thermal infrared bright temperature, vegetation indexes. The thematic products, such as leaf area index and land surface temperature, are retrieved and estimated by these basic data products at present. The research progress and development trends of the further data processing, analysis, and application of the data prod- uct are introduced in detail. The data processing includes time series reconstruction, comparison and conver- sion, validation. The data application includes dynamic monitoring of the surface features, information ex- traction of phenology and planting structure,modeling application.
