Fast bowtie effect elimination for MODIS L1B data

The bowtie effect refers to geometry distortions for the moderate resolution imaging spectrum-radiometer(MODIS) level 1B(L1B) data.Till now,to eliminate the bowtie effect,numerous methods are proposed.However,most of them have limitations in computation efficiency.Through a comparative study of existing methods,this article puts forward a fast method to eliminate the bowtie effect using the ephemeris data.In this method,the rough positions of overlapping data are first detected.Because of the influence caus...
