Abstract

Observation of the Earth using satellites mounted with optical sensors is an important application of remote sensing. Owing to physical constraints, multispectral (MS) sensors acquire images of lower spatial resolution than a single-band panchromatic (PAN) sensor that acquires images of the same scene. Pansharpening fuses the MS and PAN images to obtain an MS image with the same spatial resolution as the PAN image. In this letter, we propose to expand a method, initially developed for Sentinel-2 single-sensor sharpening, for pansharpening. The expanded method is based on solving a non-convex MS acquisition model using optimization methods based on cyclic decent and manifold optimization. The tuning parameters of the method are chosen using Bayesian optimization with reduced-scale evaluation. The proposed method is compared with a number of established pansharpening methods and is validated using both synthetic and real data sets.
