This study investigates the uncertainty of point-to-pixel-scale conversion generated via different ground sampling methods in the upscaling process. The research findings demonstrate that airborne hyperspectral images can accurately simulate ground measurement spectra and serve as an effective means of ground spectral sampling and uncertainty analysis.
The validation of satellite remote sensing surface reflectance products is aimed at comparing the reflectance pixel values of products with ground measurement values at the pixel scale. Due to the existence of surface heterogeneity, we cannot obtain the satellite pixel scale truth value through ground sampling, and only the satellite relative pixel scale truth value that closely approximates it can be acquired. The process of converting the point-scale spectrum of ground sampling into a pixel-scale spectrum will produce certain errors, known as point-to-pixel-scale conversion uncertainty, which is closely related to the type of sample area and the ground sampling method. In this study, we conducted research on the uncertainty of point-to-pixel-scale conversion generated via different ground sampling methods in the upscaling process. We utilized unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) hyperspectral images to invert the surface reflectance spectral curves of wheat, corn, bare soil, and soybeans at the pixel scale, and simulate the ground measurement spectra and satellite pixel scale ground truth of different sampling methods, so as to realize the quantitative calculation of the uncertainty of the ground truth at the satellite pixel scale. On this basis, we analyzed in depth the effects of the sampling method, measurement height, and number of spectra on the scale conversion uncertainty. The research results show that airborne hyperspectral images can accurately simulate the spectra of ground measurements, and can be used as an effective means of ground spectral sampling and uncertainty analysis. When using the systematic sampling method, the more the sampling points, the smaller the uncertainty. However, the uncertainty of scale conversion tends to stabilize when the number of sampling points is increased to a certain quantity. As the height of ground measurement increases, the number of spectra within the elementary sampling unit (ESU) increases, leading to smaller scale conversion uncertainties. The research results of this study will provide support for the subsequent optimization of ground sampling methods and the improvement of measurement efficiency and measurement accuracy.
