Passive high spatial resolution hyperspectral and multispectral imaging systems in the solar spectral region from aircraft and satellite platforms are being increasingly used for remote sensing of coastal waters and inland lakes. However, the remotely sensed data are often contaminated by the specular reflection of solar radiation at the air/water interface. Thus, the effects of sunglint need to be corrected. The purpose of sunglint correction is to remove the undesired specular reflected portion of radiance that does not carry any information about the water body and its bottom surface properties and to obtain the water-leaving radiance from the measured total radiance. In general, adequate treatment of the spectral variation of the sunglint effect with due consideration of the physics and the spectroscopy principles has not been done in previously reported hyperspectral sunglint removing techniques. In this study, a practical sunglint removing technique using either a shortwave infrared (SWIR) band or a near-infrared (NIR) band has been developed, where the liquid water absorption is sufficiently large, and the water-leaving radiance (in units of reflectance) is negligible. In the proposed method, proper consideration has been taken for the spectral Fresnel reflection in the wavelength range of 0.35–2.5 mm. Four cases of sunglint removal from hyperspectral imaging data acquired from two airborne imaging spectrometers have been presented.
