Abstract:
Remote sensing nighttime lights (NTLs) offers a unique perspective on human activity, and NTL images are widely used in urbanization monitoring, light pollution, and other human-related research. As one of the payloads of sustainable development science Satellite-1 (SDGSAT-1), the Glimmer Imager (GI) provides a new multi-spectral, high-resolution, global coverage of NTL images. However, during the on-orbit testing of SDGSAT-1, a large number of stripes with bad or corrupted pixels were observed in the L1A GI image, which directly affected the accuracy and availability of data applications. Therefore, we propose a novel destriping algorithm based on anomaly detection and spectral similarity restoration (ADSSR) for the GI image. The ADSSR algorithm mainly consists of three parts: pretreatment, stripe detection, and stripe restoration. In the pretreatment, salt-pepper noise is suppressed by setting a minimum area threshold of the connected components. Then, during stripe detections, the valid pixel number sequence and the total pixel value sequence are analyzed to determine the location of stripes, and the abnormal pixels of each stripe are estimated by a clustering algorithm. Finally, a spectral-similarity-based method is adopted to restore all abnormal pixels of each stripe in the stripe restoration. In this paper, the ADSSR algorithm is compared with three representative destriping algorithms, and the robustness of the ADSSR algorithm is tested on different sizes of GI images. The results show that the ADSSR algorithm performs better than three representative destriping algorithms in terms of visual and quantitative indexes and still maintains outstanding performance and robustness in differently sized GI images.
