Multisensor Data Synergy of Terra-MODIS, Aqua-MODIS, and Suomi NPP-VIIRS for the Retrieval of Aerosol Optical Depth and Land Surface Reflectance Properties.

A novel multisensor synergy method, using data from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) onboard the Terra and Aqua as well as Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) onboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership, is presented to retrieve optical atmosphere-surface properties. By adopting three-sensor observations' synergy, the proposed method can grasp the multi...
