It provides a comprehensive list of openly accessible high-level satellite products that characterize the essential land surface variables of the Earth system, including the original data sources, inversion algorithms, product characteristics, validation accuracy, and any existing applications. Each product includes satellite data inversion methodology and high-level product generation and application information, allowing for comparison of different products and selection of the correct ones for different applications.
This book will help researchers, professors, and graduate students grasp the knowledge of existing satellite land products, understand the advantages and limitations, and follow the practical application examples.
- Delivers a comprehensive list of existing satellite products and their characteristics, enabling readers to compare products and select the right ones for their application
- Includes descriptions of the methodology of satellite product generation, allowing for comprehension of the fundamental inversion principles and practical algorithms for product generation
- Provides example product applications for how each satellite product can be used to solve practical problems
