TL;DR: The world atlas of zenith artificial night sky brightness is modelled with VIIRS DNB data and calibrated with new high-resolution satellite data and new precision sky brightness measurements, showing that more than 80% of the world and more than 99%" of the U.S. and European populations live under light-polluted skies.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Fifteen Year Record of Global Natural Gas Flaring Derived from Satellite Data
Christopher D. Elvidge,Daniel Ziskin,Kimberly E. Baugh,Benjamin T. Tuttle,Tilottama Ghosh,Dee W. Pack,Edward H. Erwin,Mikhail Zhizhin +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used low light imaging data acquired by the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) from 1994 through 2008 to estimate national and global gas flaring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relation between satellite observed visible-near infrared emissions, population, economic activity and electric power consumption
Christopher D. Elvidge,Kimberly E. Baugh,Eric Kihn,Herbert W. Kroehl,Ethan R. Davis,C. W. Davis +5 more
TL;DR: The area lit by anthropogenic visible-near infrared emissions (i.e., lights) has been estimated for 21 countries using night-time data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) Operational Linescan System (OLS).
Journal Article
Mapping City Lights With Nighttime Data from the DMSP Operational Linescan System
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented methods for detecting and geolocating VNIR emission sources with nighttime DMSP-OLS data and the analysis of image time series to identify spatially stable emissions from cities, towns, and industrial sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The first-ever calibrated satellite radiometer designed for night lights is used to show that from 2012 to 2016, Earth’s artificially lit outdoor area grew by 2.2% per year, with a total radiance growth of 1.8% peryear.
