摘要

This paper presents a portable Multi-Angle Observation System (MAOS) to quickly collect bi-directional reflectance factor (BRF) and directional thermal radiance of land surface along with the spectroradiometer and thermal radiometer. The new system is able to make more than 13 zenith measurements in six minutes at an arbitrary azimuth direction, with the angle-controlling accuracy better than 2 degrees. More observations are sampled in the hot-spot direction. All operations of the MAOS and data-processing are automatically controlled by the computer. Field campaign of winter wheat canopy shows that the MAOS had captured the angular variations of the BRF.
