Abstract

The imaging spectroscopy is capable to detect the absorption features of the atmospheric components supplying an estimate of the amount of gases and aerosols. In this paper the AVIRIS (Airborne Visible/InfraRed Imaging Spectrometer) image is used to estimate the spatial distribution of water vapor and surface pressure. The study area was the massive Niquelândia presents a pronounced variation in height, with altitudes between 500m and 1.180m. A digital terrain model (DTM) was developed and compared with atmospheric images using linear regression. The condition of clear sky, without cloud cover, favored a high correlation between the DTM and the atmospheric parameters. The error images show the worst adjustments in water bodies and bare soil.
