| Abstract: | The impact of spatial resolution enhancement on pattern recognition based on SSM/I measurements is evaluated. The instrument ground footprints for the 19, 22 and 37 GHz channels have considerable overlap. An objective technique can be applied to enhance spatial resolution of measurements to the spatial resolution of the 37 GHz channel. The authors utilize a Backus-Gilbert matrix transform approach. Different validation procedures have been performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method with the aim to ameliorate the boundary detection on pattern recognition and specially to cloud classification improvement. |
