Resümee

Accurate quantification of surface solar radiation is the basis of remote sensing inversion of reflectivity, and a research on urban surface radiation is important. The sky view factor is selected to characterize the morphological characteristics of the underlying surface of the urban area, and the Urban Surface Solar Radiation Model (USSR) is constructed. This model has distinguished the different effects of direct solar radiation, diffuse sky radiation, and environmental radiation on ground objects. The remote sensing data of Landsat 8 visible and near-infrared bands are considered the examples, and the application prospect of the USSR model for the quantification of urban surface solar radiation is analyzed. The research conclusions are as follows: (1) The USSR clearly quantifies the radiation components of urban surface based on the sky view factor (V), which can effectively solve the simulation of solar radiation transfer process of urban surface and better express the influence of the morphological structure of urban underlying surface on the incident radiation. (2) When USSR is applied to the estimates of solar radiation in the visible and near-infrared bands of Landsat 8 remote sensing data, compared with the estimated values without considering the influence of the morphological characteristics of the underlying surface, the urban surface solar radiation values estimated based on the USSR model can better express the “interception” effect of urban underlying surfaces on the incident radiation. (3) Compared with the TEB model, the USSR model estimates have high correlation, which indirectly verifies the availability of the USSR model. (4) According to the sensitivity analysis of V and reflectivity of the underneath surface, the results show an increasing trend as the V value of the underlying surface increased. In general, the parameter setting value is weak and insensitive compared with the parameter V. The proposed USSR model can amend the estimation results of urban surface solar radiation and improve the reliability of estimation results, thereby expanding the application depth and breadth of urban remote sensing.
