Evaluation of shadow influence in NOAA AVHRR data

  • Published : 2003.11.03

Abstract

There is various problem in grasping change of vegetation by NDVI, PVI, etc. It is very difficult especially to remove various noise ingredients in the received satellite data. Until now, it is difficult to compensate for shadow effect when NDVI is used in vegetation analysis. The essence of this study is to describe data simulation and then applied the result to the NOAA AVHRR data. When a pixel contains shadow more than 60% then this pixe1 is extracted for shadow effects on NDVI.
