Introduction
Soham Mukherjee currently pursues PhD in Ocean Colour Remote Sensing at the Université du Québec à Rimouski. Soham researches on quantifying the parametric uncertainty in the "ill-posed" inverse radiative transfer model in optically complex waters of the Eastern Gulf of the Saint Lawrence river. Soham has a strong interest in Bayesian statistics and Stochastic optimization techniques, especially in Optical Remote Sensing.

Article
Full-text available
In hydrological optics, “optical closure” means consistency between the apparent optical properties (AOPs) determined from radiometric measurements and those derived from radiative transfer modelling based on concurrently measured inherent optical properties (IOPs) and boundary conditions (sea and sky states). Good optical closure not only provides...
Presentation
Full-text available
This presentation addresses the vicarious calibration and atmospheric correction of the Watersat Imaging Spectrometer Experiment (WISE) from measuring in situ water-leaving reflectance to validating remotely sensed water-leaving reflectance.
Presentation
Full-text available
This presentation highlights the importance of system vicarious calibration for airborne imaging spectroscopy. It details the procedure, starting with in situ calculation of water leaving reflectance, modelization of at-sensor reflectance, determination of system vicarious calibration gains, and validation of atmospheric correction.

Combinaison of optic and acoustic remote sensing to retrieve benthic reflectance for shallow water ecosystem cartography
Conference Paper
The study aims to classify the coastline of Manicouagan Peninsula, QC using WaterSat Imaging Experiment (WISE) hyperspectral imagery. A probabilistic pixel-based spectral classification scheme is integrated with contextual spatial pattern regularization using Bayesian MAP approach.
Article
Full-text available
The night-time lights (NTL) captured by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program’s Operational Linescan System (DMSP/OLS) are widely used as proxy for studying human activities. Lack of on-board calibration necessitates inter-calibration of time-series images acquired by different satellites before using them in long-term studies. Pseudo-invari...
Thesis
Full-text available
Defense Meteorological Satellite Program Operational Linescan System (DMSP-OLS) night-time images are used to monitor human related temporal and spatial changes on the Earth surface like urbanization and socio-economic activities. But due to lack of on-board calibration these datasets cannot be directly used in the studies as the uncalibrated image...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
This paper presents how spatial interpolation techniques can be used to predict precipitation amount of a certain region and the variation of precipitation of that area in different seasons throughout the year: ordinary kriging and regression kriging with different variogram fitting models are used and assessed in the study. The techniques have bee...

Question
Can anyone please help me in studying about spectral indices and band ratios to detect soil health, moisture or nutrients in agricultural lands? In case of vegetation-related study, I am getting numerous examples but to detect properties (moisture, nitrogen content, phosphorous content, organic carbon) of the soil (non-bare) under agricultural lands, I am not having enough idea. I am working with AVIRIS-NG image.
Question
I am trying to radio-metrically normalize (RRN) DMSP-OLS and VIIRS-DnB acquired data for understanding urban dynamics from 2000 to 2017.  A related paper by Shao et al. (2014) mentioned the MT 2009 model for RRN b/w VIIRS-DnB and DMSP-OLS. It was used in the study to find the consistency between VIIRS-DnB acquired radiance and the radiance derived from the MT model with varying lunar phases.
Thus, I want to know how to implement MT 2009 model and also the working principles of MT2009 model.

Question
I need to trace the essential nutrients in soils of Chilika lake situated in Odissa, India. I do have AVIRIS aquired data for the site and also the pure spectra of the nutrients from ground truth collection and it's analysis. Is there any developed indice(s) that will help to identify particular nutrients from the hyper-spectral imagery along with the ground truth as reference?
