BRDF (bidirectional reflectance distribution function) is critical in realistic simulation of material appearances since it models the directional characteristics of reflection of light. Although many BRDF models have been proposed so far, it is still not easy to find one specific model that could represent all the reflection properties of real materials such as generalized diffusion, off-specular reflection, Fresnel effect, and back scattering. In this paper, we compare three BRDF models including B-spline volume BRDF (BVB), Cook-Torrance, and Lafortune in their ability to represent the measured BRDF data for physically-based rendering. We show that B-spline volume BRDF surpass the others in quality of data fitting and rendering, especially for materials without specular reflections.

Infrared(IR) guided heat-seeking missiles uses IR emissions from aircraft to detect and track a target. Due to passive characteristic of the IR guidance, early detection of the missile is difficult and it is significant threat to aircraft survivability. Therefore, IR signature prediction of the aircraft is an important aspect of the stealth technology. In this study, we simulated IR signature of the aircraft in real atmospheric conditions. Aircraft surface temperature distribution was calculated by using RadthermIR code. Based on temperature distribution, IR radiance and BRDF(Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) image were simulated for different weather(seasonal) and background(sky/soil) conditions. The IR contrast tendencies are not aligned with surface temperature or magnitude of target IR radiance. Therefore, it is essential to simulate IR signature with various conditions and background to acquire reliable database.

본 연구에서는 MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) 자료를 활용하여 20년(2002-2021)의 중분류 토지피복별 알베도 변화를 분석하고, Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS)의 10년(2012-2021) 자료를 활용해 MODIS 자료와의 차이를 분석하였다. MODIS와 VIIRS의 알베도 자료는 Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) 모델을 활용해 생산된 Sinusoidal Tile Grid 기반 500 m 공간해상도의 일단위 알베도 자료 MCD43A3와 VNP43IA3를 우리나라 범위에 대하여 구축하였다. Python 3.9 기반으로 작성된 코드를 활용하여 Reprojection을 하였으며, Resampling method는 Nearest neighbor를 적용하였다. 알베도 분석에는 단파 영역(Shortwave)의 White sky albedo와 Black sky albedo를 활용하였다. MODIS 자료를 활용한 20년의 알베도 분석 결과, 모든 토지이용에서 알베도가 상승하는 경향이 나타났다. 2000년대(2002-2011)에 비해 2010년대(2012-2021)의 평균 알베도가 산림 지역에서 0.0027의 가장 큰 상승값을 보였고, 그 다음으로 초지가 0.0024의 상승값을 보였다. VIIRS와 MODIS의 알베도를 비교한 결과, VIIRS의 알베도가 0.001에서 0.1 만큼 더 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 영상의 촬영시기에 따른 지표면 반사도와 센서의 특성 차이에 의한 것으로 판단된다.

This paper presents the method to quantitatively evaluate the uncertainty of the semi-empirical Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) model for Himawari-8/AHI. The uncertainty of BRDF modeling was affected by various issues such as assumption of model and number of observations, thus, it is difficult that evaluating the performance of BRDF modeling using simple uncertainty equations. Therefore, in this paper, Monte-Carlo method, which is most dependable method to analyze dynamic complex systems through iterative simulation, was used. The 1,000 input datasets for analyzing the uncertainty of BRDF modeling were generated using the Second Simulation of a Satellite Signal in the Solar Spectrum (6S) Radiative Transfer Model (RTM) simulation with MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) BRDF product. Then, we randomly selected data according to the number of observations from 4 to 35 in the input dataset and performed BRDF modeling using them. Finally, the uncertainty was calculated by comparing reproduced surface reflectance through the BRDF model and simulated surface reflectance using 6S RTM and expressed as bias and root-mean-square-error (RMSE). The bias was negative for all observations and channels, but was very small within 0.01. RMSE showed a tendency to decrease as the number of observations increased, and showed a stable value within 0.05 in all channels. In addition, our results show that when the viewing zenith angle is 40° or more, the RMSE tends to increase slightly. This information can be utilized in the uncertainty analysis of subsequently retrieved geophysical variables.

Metallic paint is one of the most widely used coating in automotive, cosmetic and other applications because of its well-known ability to give a product realistic look which creates widespread consumer appeal. But, this coating has complicated subsurface structure which includes pigments, flakes, and transparent clearcoat. Though various analytic reflection models are available to simulate appearance of various surfaces, it is difficult to select an appropriate reflection model with faithful parameters for simulating this coating due to the complex subsurface structure of metallic paints. This paper presents a framework for accurate modeling of metallic coating by determining an appropriate reflection model among various existing BRDF (Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) models. The selection of the appropriate model is achieved by measuring BRDF of various metallic paint samples using a BRDF measuring device i.e. gonioreflectometer and fitting an existing model to the measured data. Then, this model is effectively realized by rendering metallic painted surfaces. We believe that this framework can serve as a guide for those who wants to render metallic painted surfaces accurately with analytic BRDF model without expending time on extracting BRDF data using gonioreflectometer from real metallic paint sample.

Space-borne remote sensing is an effective and inexpensive way to identify crop fields and detect the crop condition. We examined the multi-temporal spectral characteristics of rice fields in South Korea to detect their phenological development and condition. These rice fields are compact, small-scale parcels of land. For the analysis, moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) and RapidEye images acquired in 2011 were used. The annual spectral tendencies of different crop types could be detected using MODIS data because of its high temporal resolution, despite its relatively low spatial resolution. A comparison between MODIS and RapidEye showed that the spectral characteristics changed with the spatial resolution. The vegetation index (VI) derived from MODIS revealed more moderate values among different land-cover types than the index derived from RapidEye. Additionally, an analysis of various VIs using RapidEye satellite data showed that the VI adopting the red edge band reflected crop conditions better than the traditionally used normalized difference VI.

본 연구에서는 GLI 센서의 자외선인 380nm, 가시광선 영 역의 400nm와 412nm, 가시광선의 푸른 파장영역인 460nm와 490nm, 근파장 적외선인 2100nm를 비교 분석하여 생체 소각 에어러솔 탐지에 효과적인 파장을 살펴보고자 하였다. 자외선 파장이 지표 반사도가 낮고 BRDF 효과도 작게 나타나므로 에어러솔 추정시 효과적이라고 알려져 있으나 412nm를 제외한 400nm, 460nm, 490nm에서 380nm와 비슷한 지표 반사도를 보였다. 지표 반사도 대비 방법을 2003년 5월에 적용해 에어러솔 반사도를 산출하였을때 460nm의 에어러솔 반사도가 380nm 보다 민감하게 나타났다. GLI의 두파장을 이용해 TOMS 에어러솔 지수를 산출하였을 때 생체 소각 에어러솔은 흡수성 에어러솔로 나타났으며 380nm와 460nm를 이용한 TOMS 에어러솔 지수가 AERONET의 에어러솔 광학 두께와 높은 상관관계를 보이며 에어러솔의 광학 두께에 민감하게 반응하고 있다. 그러므로 생체소각 에어러솔을 탐지할 때에는 가시광선의 푸른색 영역의 파장대가 효과적일 것으로 사료된다.

물체 표면의 재질을 실물에 가깝게 렌더링 하는 것은 그래픽 콘텐츠의 사실감을 위한 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문은 속성이 다른 여러 구성 물질에 의해 복잡한 무늬가 형성된 표면을 한 장의 스틸 사진만을 이용하여 셰이딩하는 기법을 제안한다. 기존 방법들은 이와 같은 이종물질에 의한 불규칙한 텍스처의 렌더링을 위해 많은 이미지를 필요로 하거나 특수 촬영 장비를 사용했으며, 수작업에 의해 물질별 표면 영역을 나누어 주어야 했다. 본 연구에서는 영상의 히스토그램 분포 특성에 따른 물질별 텍스처 영역 분할법의 자동 선택 방식을 제시하였고, 그 결과로 구분된 물질별 레이어에 대해 근사화(approximate)된 양방향 반사도 분포함수(BRDF) 값을 구함으로써 주어진 사진과 다른 조명 조건이나 시야(view)에 대해서도 대응되는 렌더링 및 셰이딩 결과를 생성할 수 있음을 보였다.

Satellite images can be integrated into a crop model to strengthen the advantages of each technique for crop monitoring and to compensate for weaknesses of each other, which can be systematically applied for monitoring inaccessible croplands. The objective of this study was to outline the productivity of paddy rice based on simulation of the yield of all paddy fields in North Korea, using a grid crop model combined with optical satellite imagery. The grid GRAMI-rice model was used to simulate paddy rice yields for inaccessible North Korea based on the bidirectional reflectance distribution function-adjusted vegetation indices (VIs) and the solar insolation. VIs and solar insolation for the model simulation were obtained from the Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) and the Meteorological Imager (MI) sensors of the Communication Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS). Reanalysis data of air temperature were achieved from the Korea Local Analysis and Prediction System (KLAPS). Study results showed that the yields of paddy rice were reproduced with a statistically significant range of accuracy. The regional characteristics of crops for all of the sites in North Korea were successfully defined into four clusters through a spatial analysis using the K-means clustering approach. The current study has demonstrated the potential effectiveness of characterization of crop productivity based on incorporation of a crop model with satellite images, which is a proven consistent technique for monitoring of crop productivity in inaccessible regions.
