Abstract
The petroleum pollution is one of the main pollutants of Chinese ocean, and developing algorithms and systems for realtime oil spill monitoring is an urgent matter of the moment. Because the satellite remote sensing is efficient, fargoing and inexpensive, this paper is focused on making use of satellite data of EOS/MODIS, and attempting to monitor oil spill of maritime space in China. The method is built based on the analysis of oil spectral characteristic, and then the remote sensing spectral characters of several petroleum types under the maritime circumstance and the difference of thermal infrared spectrum of oil are observed to provide oil information for oil film monitoring. The research will be used water quality monitoring and early warning for larger ocean disaster, and shows a good application example of satellite data of the EOS/MODIS.
