Abstract: Method for unmixing, category decomposition of the mixed pixel (MIXEL) of remote sensing satellite imagery data taking into account the effect due to Bi-Directional Reflectance Distribution Function: BRDF is proposed. Although there is not so small BRDF effect on estimation mixing ratios, conventional unmixing methods do not take into account the effect. Through experiments, the effect is clarified. Also the proposed unmixing method with consideration of BRDF effect is validated.
