Leaf area index (LAI) is a key biophysical variable to characterize vegetation canopy. Accurate and quantitative LAI estimation is significant for monitoring vegetation growth status. ZhuHai-1 (ZH-1), which is a commercial remote sensing micro-nano satellite, provides a possibility for quantitative detection of vegetation with high spatial and spectral resolution. However, the band characteristics of ZH-1 are closely related to the accuracy of vegetation monitoring. In this study, a simulation dataset containing 32 bands of ZH-1 was generated by using the PROSAIL model, which was used to analyze the performance of 32 bands for LAI estimation by using the hybrid inversion method. Meanwhile, the effect of different band combinations on LAI estimation was discussed based on sensitivity analysis and the correlation between bands. Then, the optimal band combination from ZH-1 hyperspectral satellite data for LAI estimation was obtained. LAI estimation was performed based on the selected optimal band combination of ZH-1 satellite images in Xiantao city, Hubei province, and compared with the Sentinel-2 normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) values and LAI product. The results demonstrated that the obtained LAI map based on the optimal band combination of ZH-1 was generally consistent with the overall distribution of Sentinel-2 NDVI and the LAI product, but had a moderate correlation with Sentinel-2 LAI (R = 0.60), which may not favorably indicate the validity of indirect validation. However, the method of this study on the analysis of hyperspectral data bands has application potential to provide a reference for selecting appropriate bands of hyperspectral satellite data to estimate LAI and improve the application of hyperspectral data such as ZH-1 in vegetation monitoring.
