A Universal BRDF Archetype Database for Normalizing Directional Reflectance to Nadir BRDF Adjusted Reflectance by Qianrui Xi, Hu Zhang, Junqin Xie, Xiaoning Zhang, Hongtao Cao, Yan Liu, Lei Cui, Yadong Dong

“…The results indicate that the following: 1) The 3 × 3 universal BRDF archetype database is sufficient to represent the surface anisotropy of different spectral bands. 2) The optimal BRDF archetype in the lookup table (LUT) undergoes notable variations under different solar and viewing geometries, and specific prior BRDF knowledge is applicable only to certain solar and viewing geometries. 3) Validations based on simulated MODerate resolution imaging spectroradiometer reflectance suggests that in the red and near-infrared (NIR) bands, when the observation zenith angle is 60°, the percentages of directions with the root mean square error (RMSE) values below 0.05 and 0.06 constitute 82.74% and 75.70% of the entire viewing hemisphere, respectively. …”
