Popis: The effect of topographic correction (TOC) has a profound influence on the quantitative application of remote sensing image. With regard to the invalid evaluation of the TOC model with such a single topographic correction assessment (TCA) method, we have selected five TCA indexes from five different perspectives: the difference in mean radiance radiometry between sunlit and shaded slopes, the cosine empirical relationship, stability, heterogeneity, and outlier ratio. The entropy weight method was used to assign weight to each TCA indexes, and the comprehensive evaluation value (CEV) of TOC for each band of remote sensing image was obtained by weighted superposition. After that, the weight of each band of the remote sensing image is determined by the entropy weight method, and the CEV of the TOC of the remote sensing image is obtained by weighting and superposition, so as to realize the effect evaluation of the six TOC models of C, SCS + C, VECA, Teillet, Minnaert, and Minnaert + SCS. The results indicate that the proposed method can effectively evaluate the correction effect of the TOC model. Results indicate that the SCS + C model has the best correction effect, while the Minnaert model performs the worst. The results generated from the Minnaert + SCS, Teillet, and Minnaert models typically show inferior quality. The SCS + C, VECA, and C models are better suited for generating images with high spectral fidelity, and these three correction models are recommended for TOCs over mountainous areas.
