Abstract

Satellite data for remote sensing technology has limitations, especially with visible range sensor, cloud and/or other environmental factors cause missing data. In this study, using land surface temperature data from the MODerate resolution Imaging Spectro-radiometer(MODIS), we developed retrieving methods for satellite missing data and developed three methods; mean bias, regression analysis and local variation method. These methods used the previous day data as reference data. In order to validate these methods, we selected a specific measurement ratio using artificial missing data from 2014 to 2015. The local variation method showed low accuracy with root mean square error(RMSE) more than 2 K in some cases, and the regression analysis method showed reliable results in most cases with small RMSE values, 1.13 K, approximately. RMSE with the mean bias method was similar to RMSE with the regression analysis method, 1.32 K, approximately.

원격 관측 자료인 위성 자료는 한계점이 있으며, 특히 광학 관측기를 활용하면 구름이나 기타 요인에 의해 손실 자료가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 MODerate resolution Imaging Spectrometer(MODIS)의 관측 자료 중, 지표면 온도 자료를 대상으로 손실 자료를 복원하기 위한 방법인 평균 편차 방법, 회귀 분석 방법, 지역 변동 방법의 세 가지 복원 방법을 개발하였다. 검증을 위해 2014년과 2015년의 위성 자료에서 관측 비율을 근거로 사례를 선택하였다. 검증 자료에서 확인된 지역 변동 방법의 평균 제곱근 편차(RMSE)는 일부 사례에서 약 2 K 이상으로 다른 복원 방법에 비해 낮은 정확도를 보였으며, 회귀 분석 방법의 RMSE는 평균 약 1.13 K으로 대부분의 사례에서 가장 좋은 결과를 보였다. 평균 편차 방법 사용 시, RMSE는 회귀 분석 방법 시와 유사하게 약 1.32 K으로 나타났다.
