Abstract

Land surface albedo inversion based on satellite data requires multiple consecutive (generally greater than or equal to 7) observations. Due to weather reasons such as cloud occlusion, it is difficult to obtain sufficient observation data, which leads to low inversion accuracy and even unsuccessful inversion. The anisotropic flat index (AFX) index was used to classify the 5-year multiangle observation data set of reflectance and eight bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) archetypes were obtained in Hefei, Anhui, China. The eight obtained BRDF archetypes in the Hefei area were applied to FY-2G satellite data for land surface albedo retrieval, and the retrieved land surface albedo was compared with MODIS land surface albedo products. The results show that the land surface albedo can be retrieved well using FY-2G data by BRDF archetypes.
