Im. Egorov et al., MONITORING OF ATMOSPHERIC AIR-POLLUTION BY USING SATELLITE PHOTOGRAPHY DATA OF THE TERRITORY, Earth observation and remote sensing, 12(3), 1995, pp. 418-427
A method is proposed for estimating the degree of atmospheric air poll
ution from an anomalous optical contrast (OC) in the photographs obtai
ned from earth resources satellites in the near IR region. The PC-base
d monitoring technology makes it possible to carry out in an interacti
ve mode multifunctional processing of spectrozonal photographs of the
territory jointly with maps of calculated neat-earth atmospheric pollu
tion fields.
