Shadow is one of the major problems in remotely sensed imagery which hampers the accuracy of information extraction and change detection. In these images, shadow is generally produced by different objects, namely, cloud, mountain and urban materials. The shadow correction process consists of two steps: detection and de-shadowing.

On this site you find a database of remote sensing indices and satellite sensors. Available bands of sensors are linked with required wavelenghts of indices, so that one can get all sensors usable for calculating an index and vice versa one can find all indices that can be calculated by data from a specific sensor. For multi-spectral remote sensing imagery, accurate shadow extraction is of great significance for overcoming the information loss caused by high buildings and the solar incidence angle in urban remote sensing. However, diverse solar illumination conditions, similarities between shadows, and other dark land features bring uncertainties and deviations to shadow extraction processes and results Detection of shadow is very important in the applications of urban remote sensing images like object recognition, image fusion, object classification and change detection. So, it is an important research issue to detect shadows for urban aerial images[1]. Detection of Building Shadow in Remote Sensing Imagery of Urban Areas With Fine Spatial Resolution Based on Saturation and Near-Infrared Information Abstract: Because of the satellite orbit height and solar elevation angle, remote sensing imagery of urban areas with fine spatial resolution inevitably contains shadows cast by buildings, which thus decreases the accuracy of target recognition and information extraction. Shadow is one of the major problems in remotely sensed imagery which hampers the accuracy of information extraction and change detection. In these images, shadow is generally produced by different objects, namely, cloud, mountain and urban materials. The shadow correction process consists of two steps: detection and de-shadowing.

Abstract. Cloud and cloud shadow detection is a necessary preprocessing step for optical remote sensing applications because of the huge negative influence cloud and cloud shadow can have on data analysis. A new morphological attribute building index (MABI) and shadow index (MASI) are proposed here for automatically extracting building features from very high-resolution (VHR) remote sensing 1.2. Remote Sensing and Vegetation Indices. Remote sensing of vegetation is mainly performed by obtaining the electromagnetic wave reflectance information from canopies using passive sensors. It is well known that the reflectance of light spectra from plants changes with plant type, water content within tissues, and other intrinsic factors . logical shadow index (MSI) is proposed to detect shadows that are used as a spatial constraint of buildings; 2) a dual-threshold fil- tering is proposed to integrate the information of MBI and MSI;

19 Aug 2016 Shadow is an obstacle in the application of remote sensing image analysis. With more and more extensive Index Terms. (auto-classified)  25 Oct 2016 Normalized Difference Red Edge Index, Green Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and Wide Dynamic Remote sensing data can be successfully used in class IIb, where the trees are taller, the shadow is larger. Canopy shadow provides essential information about trees and plants arrangement. As a remote sensing index, Shadow Index (SI) is calculated using the visible bands of the spectrum, in a way that simulates the amount energy not reflected back to the sensor. SI has main applications in forestry and crop monitoring. The Shadow Index (SI) increases as the forest density increases and this shadow pattern affects the spectral response. For example, young and evenly spaced trees have a low canopy shadow index For multi-spectral remote sensing imagery, accurate shadow extraction is of great significance for overcoming the information loss caused by high buildings and the solar incidence angle in urban remote sensing. However, diverse solar illumination conditions, similarities between shadows, and other dark land features bring uncertainties and deviations to shadow extraction processes and results In view of this, in this paper, a unified cloud/shadow detection algorithm based on spectral indices (CSD-SI) is proposed for various multi/hyperspectral optical remote sensing sensors with both visible and infrared spectral channels.
