Abstract:

Spectral classification of thermal band remote sensing data requires knowledge of the spectral emissivity properties of the representative materials. Open source libraries of spectral emissivity properties of some materials have been produced but frequently these measurements have been made on unweathered samples. This study was designed to collect spectral emissivity data on a set of common materials for two purposes. One purpose was to collect data at different points in time during the weathering cycle; the second purpose was to monitor the temporal change rate in the emissivity properties. The intent of this latter effort was to determine the rate of change and the time at which a steady state was reached. Spectral emissivity data was collected across the thermal bands for a period of 18 months. Concurrently weather information was also collected. Reflectivity data changes were also measured and correlated against the thermal data. All the data was linked to cumulative weathering data.
