The Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) sensor aboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) series of satellites provide daily observations for the last 30 years at a nominal resolution of 1.1 km at nadir. However, complexities due to on-board malfunctions and orbital drifts with the earlier missions hinder the usage of these images at their original resolution. In this study, we developed a new method using multiple open source tools which can read level 1B radiances, apply solar and thermal calibration to the channels, remove bow-tie effects on wider zenith angles, correct for clock drifts on earlier images and perform precise geo-rectification by automated generation and filtering of ground control points using a feature matching technique. The entire workflow is reproducible and extendable to any other geographical location. We developed a time series of brightness temperature maps from AVHRR local area coverage images covering the sub alpine lakes of Northern Italy at 1 km resolution (1986–2014; 28 years). For the validation of derived brightness temperatures, we extracted Lake Surface Water Temperature (LSWT) for Lake Garda in Northern Italy and performed inter-platform (NOAA-x vs. NOAA-y) and cross-platform (NOAA-x vs. MODIS/ATSR/AATSR) comparisons. The MAE calculated over available same day observations between the pairs—NOAA-12/14, NOAA-17/18 and NOAA-18/19 are 1.18 K, 0.67 K, 0.35 K, respectively. Similarly, for cross-platform pairs, the MAE varied between 0.5 to 1.5 K. The validation of LSWT from various NOAA instruments with in-situ data shows high accuracy with mean R2 and RMSE of 0.97 and 0.91 K respectively.","28 Seiten","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/25913||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/refubium-25672","eng","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematik::570 Biowissenschaften; Biologie::577 Ökologie","remote sensing||thermal calibration||brightness temperature||Pytroll||geo-rectification||image navigation||AVHRR LAC||LSWT","New automated method to develop geometrically corrected time series of brightness temperatures from historical AVHRR LAC data","Wissenschaftlicher Artikel","open access","10.3390/rs8030169","Remote sensing","3","169","https://doi.org/10.3390/rs8030169","8","2072-4292","Biologie, Chemie, Pharmazie","Institut für Biologie / Arbeitsbereich Zoologie:::00f0a5cd-40d6-45fb-bb72-5f0843e46b31:::600","no"
