Snow cover mapping from space: Satellite-based snow cover mapping mostly depends on the spectral reflectance from the reflective spectrum (Dietz et al., 2012). Snow surface has high reflectance in the visible wavelength and very low reflectance at near-infrared wavelength. Reflectances from these two spectrum regions are often combined to detect snow presence, of which the most commonly used is the normalized difference snow index (NDSI). Since its development, NDSI has been widely implemented by a lot of remote sensing systems,...
