- What is Remote Sensing and Image Classification? Remote Sensing
is a technology for sampling radiation and force fields to acquire
and interpret geospatial data to develop information about
features, objects, and classes on Earth's land surface, oceans, and
atmosphere (and, where applicable, on the exterior's of other
bodies in the solar system). Remote Sensing is detecting and
measuring of electromagnetic energy (usually photons) emanating
from distant objects made of various materials, so that we can
identify and categorize these object by class or type, substance,
and spatial distribution Image Classification has the overall
objective to automatically categorize all pixels in an image into
classes or themes. The Spectral pattern, or signature of surface
materials belonging to a class or theme determines an assignment to
a class.
- Slide 6
- Specifically, we measure radiation produced in three ways: 1.
Emitted from the surface (thermal IR) 2. Reflected from the surface
(solar) 3. Reflected from energy pulses directed at the surface
(RADAR)

- When radiation interacts with the atmosphere, then depending on
the wavelength, the three things that happen are - Absorption, -
Scattering, - Emission.

- Slide 18
- Scattering There are two kinds of scattering, Rayleigh or
molecular scatter, which only matters in the visible; and Mei or
aerosol scatter (scatter from raindrops, sulfuric acid droplets,
salt particles) which matter at much longer wavelengths.
- Slide 19
- Rayleigh Scatter
- Slide 20
- Solar scattering generates a Rayleigh path radiance
- Slide 21
- Slide 22
- Two kinds of solar reflection in the visible: Direct surface
reflection, diffuse sub-surface backscatter

reflection

- Classification Approaches Unsupervised: self organizing
Supervised: training Hybrid: self organization by categories
Spectral Mixture Analysis: sub-pixel variations.
- Slide 41
- Clustering / Classification Clustering or Training Stage:
Through actions of either the analysts supervision or an
unsupervised algorithm, a numeric description of the spectral
attribute of each class is determined (a multi-spectral cluster
mean signature). Classification Stage: By comparing the spectral
signature to of a pixel (the measure signature) to the each cluster
signature a pixel is assigned to a category or class.

- terms Parametric = based upon statistical parameters (mean
& standard deviation) Non-Parametric = based upon objects
(polygons) in feature space Decision Rules = rules for sorting

- Slide 46
- Classification Decision Rules If the non-parametric test
results in one unique class, the pixel will be assigned to that
class. if the non-parametric test results in zero classes (outside
the decision boundaries) the the unclassified rule applies either
left unclassified or classified by the parametric rule if the pixel
falls into more than one class the overlap rule applies left
unclassified, use the parametric rule, or processing order

NDVI Band 3 Band 4 Band 4 - Band 3 Band 4 + Band 3 Simple Ratio
NDVI When using LANDSAT:
- Slide 54
- Ocean Color Lets begin with phytoplankton Phyton = plant;
planktos = wandering. These reproduce asexually, are globally
distributed, consist of 10s of thousands of species and make up
about 25% of the total planetary veg. These are the grass that the
zooplankton graze upon. And, they fix carbon as well.
- Slide 55
- Chaetoceros species of diatoms: cells are 20-25 mm in diameter.
Chloroplasts contain pigments
- Slide 56
- 1.Water provides an internal standard shape for spectral
comparison with other variable components 2.Slopes for pigments and
CDOM similar from 440 to 600 nm, but are opposite from 400 to 440
nm 3.Note that detritus is include with CDOM since shapes are
similar 4.Spectral de-convolution of pigment absorption from CDOM
absorption is straight-forward 5.Shapes of phytoplankton or pigment
absorption are not constant (next slide) 6.For Case 2 waters, ratio
of CDOM to chlorophyll a is not constant Strategy for Spectral

- Whats the difference between MODIS chlorophylls? Case 1
waters:Chlor_MODIS (Clark) This is an empirical algorithm based on
a statistical regression between chlorophyll and radiance ratios.
Case 2 waters:Chlor_a_3 (Carder) This is a semi-analytic
(model-based) inversion algorithm. This approach is required in
optically complex case 2 (coastal) waters and low-light,
nutrient-rich regions (hi-lats). A 3 rd algorithm was added to
provide a more direct linkage to the SeaWiFS chlorophyll:

variables co-vary with chlorophyll a Note that slopes between blue
and green wave lengths decrease with increasing chlorophyll,

- MODIS Ocean Products MODIS Instruments: Terra (1030 morning),
Aqua (1330 afternoon) 40 products: 4 SST, 36 Ocean Color
Resolution: Spatial: Level 2 - 1km, ~2000km x 2000km; Level 3 -
4km, 39 km, 1 deg [all products are global] Temporal Resolution:
Level 2 - 5 minute granule; Level 3 - daily, 8 day week, monthly,
yearly
- Slide 65
- MODIS Ocean data products There are 86 ocean parameters
available in over 100 categories of MODIS Ocean data types archived
by (and may be obtained from) the NASA Goddard Distributed Active
Archive Center. The three basic groupings of MODIS ocean data
parameters are: ocean color sea surface temperature ocean primary
production Ocean Parameter categories: 36 Ocean Color parameters 4
Sea Surface Temperature parameters 8 Primary Productivity
parameters (including 2 Primary Production indices) 38 Quality
Control parameters.
- Slide 66
- Processing levels Ocean color and sea surface temperature are
available at a variety of processing levels: Level 1 - Unprocessed
top of the atmosphere radiance/reflectance At 1-km spatial
resolution 5 minute granule time resolution Level 2 swath data At
1-km spatial resolution 5 minute granule time resolution Level 3
global binned or mapped data spatial resolutions of 4.63km, 39km,
or 1 degree Time resolutions of one day, 8 days, a month or a year.
The binned data products use an integerized sinusoidal equal area
grid (ISEAG). The mapped products use a Cylindrical Equidistant
Projection.
- Slide 67
- Level 4 Productivity Ocean primary production data is available
only as binned or mapped Level 4 (i.e. L4) data. Ocean Productivity
outputs are averaged weekly or yearly. Like the L3 data, the L4
data is organized spatially as either 4km ISEAG gridded bins or as
maps using a Cylindrical Equidistant Projection. The mapped data
products are available in a choice of 4km, 39km, or 1 degree
spatial resolutions. More than one model is used for deriving these
data products and some quality statistics are available.
