Abstract
A comparison between the ASI-PRISMA (Agenzia Spaziale Italiana-PRecursore IperSpettrale della Missione Applicativa) DLR-EnMAP (German Aerospace Center—Environmental Mapping and Analysis Program) data and field spectrometer measurements has been performed. The test site, located at the "Sale 'e Porcus" pond (hereafter SPp) in Western Sardinia, Italy, offers particularly homogenous characteristics, making it an ideal location not only for experimentation but also for calibration purposes. Three remote-sensed data acquisitions have been performed by these agencies (ASI and DLR) starting on 14 July 2023 and continuing until 22 July 2023. The DLR-EnMAP data acquired on 22 July overestimates both that of the ASI-PRISMA and the 14 July DLR-EnMAP radiance in the VNIR region, while all the datasets are close to each other, up to 2500 nm, for all considered days. The average absolute mean difference between the reflectance values estimated by the ASI-PRISMA and DLR-EnMAP, in the test area, is around 0.015, despite the small difference in their time of acquisition (8 days); their maximum relative difference value occurs at about 2100 nm. In this study, we investigate the relationship between the averaged ground truth value of reflectance, acquired by means of a portable ASD FieldSpec spectoradiometer, characterizing the test site and the EO reflectance data derived from the official datasets. FieldSpec measurements confirm the quality of both the ASI-PRISMA and DLR-EnMAP's reflectance estimations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
