Key negative outcomes enabled with current data
- ASTER: Low resolution pixels. Archive only - SWIR failed in 2008.
- Airborne: Weather delays, remote sites, complex permitting.

WV-3 Science and Theory
•Radiance and Reflectance
- Data normalization
•Material Identification
- Spectroscopy
DigitalGlobe Proprietary and Business Confidential
What’s Radiance?
radiance vs reflectance
Radiance is what a satellite measures.
It is ‘how much energy’; light or heat as reflected by
something
- Things look different when they are brightly or dimly lit.
- This is radiance.
DigitalGlobe Proprietary and Business Confidential
12
Why Reflectance?
radiance vs reflectance
Reflectance is a constant, predictable property of the material.
“Percent of
light that is
reflected!”
- Reflectance is a ratio. OUT/IN = reflectance
- This is reflectance.

WV-3 Enables Seismic and Geology Mapping
•Cuprite Surface Mineralogy
•Uluru Structure and Stratigraphy
•Seismic near-surface velocity
•Exotic minerals / alteration
•Value of resolution
DigitalGlobe Proprietary and Business Confidential
“Lisbon Valley Model”
Hydrocarbon (HC) Spectral/Geochem Model
A - Trapped HC in subsurface (can be either structural or stratigraphic trap)
B - HCs migrate upward along micro fractures, fracture systems, and fault zones. The
presence of HC molecules tend to generate a reducing environment, thereby liberating
metal ions. This is particularly applicable in clastic rocks containing detrital Fe and Mg
C - Metal ions near the surface are washed away by groundwater. The resulting outcrops
and residual soils appear anomalously altered or “bleached”

• Digital Terrain Model (DTM) =
Earth surface without vertical
objects.
• Digital Surface Model (DSM) =
Earth surface with vertical
objects (e.g. trees, buildings).
• Digital Height Model (DHM) =

The vertical accuracies are based on low to medium relief areas that generally have a slope less than
30%. For rugged areas that have a consistent slope >30%, the values above can be scaled by 1.5.
