基于Landsat8的地表温度反演算法研究——以滇池流域为例

2013年2月11日Landsat 8在加州范德堡空军基地发射升空,其携带的热红外传感器为反演地表温度提供了一种新的数据,但目前尚没有针对Landsat 8热红外波段反演地表温度的算法。针对Landsat 8第10波段特征,对现有反演地表温度的单窗算法进行了参数修正,得到了用Landsat 8第10波段反演地表温度的单窗算法系数。为了评价修正后算法的精度,用MODTRAN模拟地表温度为20、30和40℃时大气水汽含量分别为1.0、1.5、2.0和2.5g·cm-2传感器高度处的热辐射值,再将模拟数据用修正后的单窗算法反演地表温度,结果表明:地表温度越低、大气水汽含量越低,误差越小;模拟结果的平均误差为0.74℃。说明基于Landsat 8第10波段用修正后的单窗算法反演地表温度是可行的,该方法可为地表温度反演提供一种途径。最后以滇池流域为例,基于2013年4月20日的Landsat 8热红外数据反演了滇池流域的地表温度,并分析了滇池流域地表温度的分布特征。     

基于MODIS 影像数据的劈窗算法研究及其参数确定

劈窗算法是目前由热红外遥感数据获取陆面温度的主要方法。在介绍劈窗算法的一般表现形式的基础上, 我们推导出适合于MOD IS 影像数据的劈窗算法。大气透过率和地表比辐射率是求解地表温度的两个关键参数。由于MOD IS 图像分辨率较低,MOD IS 像元主要由水面、植被和裸土3种地物类型构成, 故可依据这3 种地物的构成比例确定地表比辐射率。从遥感影像上反演大气的水汽含量, 再根据大气水汽含量与大气透过率的关系计算出大气透过率。最后将文中推导的劈窗算法用于江苏省地表温度的反演。反演出来的地表温度图显示出明显的地表温度空间差异、城市热岛效应和不同的地物类型。     

使用单窗算法研究北京城区热岛效应

随着全球变暖和城市化进程的加快,大城市城区的热岛效应日益严重。城市下垫面对地表能量交换的影响巨大,引起地表温度分布的不均一性。遥感技术的发展为地表温度的反演提供了可能。近年来人们使用劈窗算法对均一的海面温度的反演很成功,但是受空间分辨率的限制以及陆面的不均一性,陆面温度的反演一直是一个没有解决好的问题。覃志豪提出了一种TM热红外波段单窗算法,可以利用辅助气象资料快速计算出地表温度。本文以北京市城区为研究区,采用LandsetETM第6波段的单窗算法,反演了亮度温度和地表实际温度,分析了城市下垫面情况下NDVI与地表温度的相关关系,并解释了北京城区热岛在空间上的分布及其可能的原因。结果表明:北京市城区热岛效应显著;地表温度与NDVI相关性显著;城区绿地和水体在区域的温度分布中起到重要作用。

针对目前陆地资源卫星(Landsat-8)地表温度反演过程中,地表比辐射率估计和敏感度分析中存在的不足,对这两方面进行改进,提出了一种基于Landsat-8数据的地表温度反演算法。该文主要从劈窗算法的推导、参数的估计、敏感度分析等方面进行研究。对于大气透过率的计算,首先用与其有相邻过境时间的MODIS数据反演大气水汽含量,然后通过中分辨率的大气传输模型(Moderate Resolution Atmospheric Transmission,MODTRAN)模拟大气水汽含量与透过率的关系,最后得到大气透过率。对于发射率的计算,通过分类和ASTER提供的光谱库获得。将大气辐射传输方程模拟的地表温度与此劈窗算法反演的地表温度做比较,结果表明平均精度达到0.82K。最后研究了大气水汽含量对地表温度的影响。结果显示,当大气水汽含量误差为0.1g/cm2,其对温度反演精度的影响最大不超过0.3K;当大气水汽含量的反演误差较大的时候,其对温度反演精度的影响较大。

Only connect: teaching, technology and telesis

Abstract This paper describes an approach to the design of interactive multimedia materials being developed in a European Community project. The developmental process is seen as a dialogue between technologists and teachers. This dialogue is often problematic because of the differences in training, experience and culture between them. Conditions needed for fruitful dialogue are described and the generic model for learning design used in the project is explained.     

European Community policy and the market

Abstract This paper starts with some reflections on the policy considerations and priorities which are shaping European Commission (EC) research programmes. Then it attempts to position the current projects which seek to capitalise on information and communications technologies for learning in relation to these priorities and the apparent realities of the marketplace. It concludes that while there are grounds to be optimistic about the contribution EC programmes can make to the efficiency and standard of education and training, they are still too technology driven.

Avoiding semantic and temporal gaps in developing software intensive systems

Development of software intensive systems (systems) in practice involves a series of self-contained phases for the lifecycle of a system. Semantic and temporal gaps, which occur among phases and among developer disciplines within and across phases, hinder the ongoing development of a system because of the interdependencies among phases and among disciplines. Such gaps are magnified among systems that are developed at different times by different development teams, which may limit reuse of artifacts of systems development and interoperability among the systems. This article discusses such gaps and a systems development process for avoiding them.     

Designing economic np control charts: A programmed simulation approach

This paper presents control charts models and the necessary simulation software for the location of economic values of the control parameters. The simulation program is written in FORTRAN, requires only 10K of main storage, and can run on most mini and micro computers. Two models are presented - one describes the process when it is operating at full capacity and the other when the process is operating under capacity. The models allow the product quality to deteriorate to a further level before an existing out-of-control state is detected, and they can also be used in situations where no prior knowledge exists of the out-of-control causes and the resulting proportion defectives.     

The development of robot art

Going through a few examples of robot artists who are recognized worldwide, we try to analyze the deepest meaning of what is called “robot art” and the related art field definition. We also try to highlight its well-marked borders, such as kinetic sculptures, kinetic art, cyber art, and cyberpunk. A brief excursion into the importance of the context, the message, and its semiotics is also provided, case by case, together with a few hints on the history of this discipline in the light of an artistic perspective. Therefore, the aim of this article is to try to summarize the main characteristics that might classify robot art as a unique and innovative discipline, and to track down some of the principles by which a robotic artifact can or cannot be considered an art piece in terms of social, cultural, and strictly artistic interest. This work was presented in part at the 13th International Symposium on Artificial Life and Robotics, Oita, Japan, January 31–February 2, 2008     

Explanation and prediction: an architecture for default and abductive reasoning

Although there are many arguments that logic is an appropriate tool for artificial intelligence, there has been a perceived problem with the monotonicity of classical logic. This paper elaborates on the idea that reasoning should be viewed as theory formation where logic tells us the consequences of our assumptions. The two activities of predicting what is expected to be true and explaining observations are considered in a simple theory formation framework. Properties of each activity are discussed, along with a number of proposals as to what should be predicted or accepted as reasonable explanations. An architecture is proposed to combine explanation and prediction into one coherent framework. Algorithms used to implement the system as well as examples from a running implementation are given.     

View-based model-driven architecture for enhancing maintainability of data access services

In modern service-oriented architectures, database access is done by a special type of services, the so-called data access services (DAS). Though, particularly in data-intensive applications, using and developing DAS are very common today, the link between the DAS and their implementation, e.g. a layer of data access objects (DAOs) encapsulating the database queries, still is not sufficiently elaborated, yet. As a result, as the number of DAS grows, finding the desired DAS for reuse and/or associated documentation can become an impossible task. In this paper we focus on bridging this gap between the DAS and their implementation by presenting a view-based, model-driven data access architecture (VMDA) managing models of the DAS, DAOs and database queries in a queryable manner. Our models support tailored views of different stakeholders and are scalable with all types of DAS implementations. In this paper we show that our view-based and model driven architecture approach can enhance software development productivity and maintainability by improving DAS documentation. Moreover, our VMDA opens a wide range of applications such as evaluating DAS usage for DAS performance optimization. Furthermore, we provide tool support and illustrate the applicability of our VMDA in a large-scale case study. Finally, we quantitatively prove that our approach performs with acceptable response times.     

A pragmatic multi-method investigation of discrepant technological events: Coping,attributions, and ‘accidental’ learning

Discrepant technological events or situations that entail a problem, a misunderstanding or a difficulty with the Information Technology (IT) being employed, are common in the workplace, and can lead to frustration and avoidance behaviors. Little is known, however, about how individuals cope with these events. This paper examines these events by using a multi-method pragmatic approach informed by coping theory. The results of two studies – a critical incident study and an experiment – serve to build and test, respectively, a theoretical model that posits that individuals use a variety of strategies when dealing with these events: they experience negative emotions, make external attributions, and adopt engagement coping strategies directed at solving the event, eventually switching to a disengagement coping strategy when they feel they have no control over the situation. Furthermore, users’ efforts may result in ‘accidental’ learning as they try to overcome the discrepant IT events through engagement coping. The paper ends with a discussion of the results in light of existing literature, future opportunities for research, and implications for practice.
