Enhancing Airborne Remote Sensing for Carbon Balance Mapping in Amazon

Explore strategies to achieve airborne remote sensing objectives using advanced technologies like AVIRIS and Hyperspectral imagers. Measure CO2 to estimate regional carbon balance. Collaborate with LBA-Air-ECO and INPE teams for efficient mapping of ground and canopy topography. Evaluate options like FAB Learjet and INPE Bandeirante for cost-effective mapping over well-quantified AGB areas. Seek approval for coordinated efforts with NASA HQ and Brazilian MCT.

Presentation Transcript

  1. LBA-Air-ECO? • Discuss potential ways to recover the airborne remote sensing science objectives

  2. COBRA • Measure atmospheric CO2 concentration to estimate regional carbon balance • Fly with BARCA (Balanço Regional de Carbono na Amazônia) • Brazilian Lear jet (LIDER) w/ modified door • November 2004 and May 2005 (?)

  3. AVIRIS • Hyperspectral imaging spectrometer used by LBA-ECO and INPE teams • Hyperion satellite hyperspectral images (>50 to date) are high quality and will allow 10-20% of original objectives to be met • Brazilian Air Force aircraft • C130 • SIVAM Cessna Caravan • Commercial aircraft would require expensive modification • AISA+ commercial hyperspectral sensor (Indiana) • 6 weeks after July 2004 on INPE Bandeirante

  4. LVIS • Lidar to map ground and canopy topography, canopy structure, and above ground biomass • No satellite alternatives • FAB C130 • FAB Learjet • LIDER Learjet (same on as BARCA) • INPE Bandeirante • Max cost benefit: mapping effort over areas with most well quantified AGB

  5. Approval Needed! • Agreement options are being studied and coordinated with NASA HQ and Brazilian MCT
