AbstractAlthough Earth observations, such as Landsat, and Sentinel-2 images, provide significant information for land surface studies, the time-series datasets that they have produced are short for certain land surface monitoring and dynamic studies due to clouds contamination and/or satellite's low revisit frequency. At Canada Centre for Remote Sensing, we have developed two image fusion models to blend medium spatial resolution images (Landsat and Sentinel-2) with coarse resolution MODIS images to generate dense cloud-free time-series synthetic Landsat or Sentinel-2 images. The first is Prediction Smooth Reflectance Fusion Model (PSRFM) (Zhong and Zhou 2018, 2019). The second is Kalman Filter Reflectance Fusion Model (KFRFM) (Zhou and Zhong 2020). Evaluations of both models' outputs against observations and comparisons to some well-known image fusion models, such as Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Reflectance Fusion Model (STARFM) (Gao et al. 2006), Enhanced version of STARFM (ESTARFM) (Zhu et al. 2010) and the Flexible Spatiotemporal Data Fusion (FSDAF) model (Zhu et al. 2016), indicated that the newly developed cutting-edge models are among the best ones. Both models are also implemented in C++ in one software package which is multi-core enabled for high computation efficiency and can be run in a batch mode with a simple parameter control file.
In this presentation, we will discuss some key challenges in image fusion development, and our innovative solutions. We will also introduce the models' capabilities and some of their promising applications, as well as the software package, which is open and free downloadable from https://github.com/dzhong-hub/PSRFM.
