Remote sensing provides the only feasible option for mapping LAI continuously over landscapes, but existing methodologies have significant limitations. To detect LAI accurately and quickly is one of tasks in the ecological and agricultural crop yield estimation study, etc. Emerging hyperspectral remote sensing sensor and techniques can complement existing ground-based measurement of LAI. Spatially explicit measurements of LAI extracted from hyperspectral remotely sensed data are component necessary for simulation of ecological variables and processes. This paper firstly summarized LAI retrieval method based on different level hyperspectral remote sensing platform (i. e., airborne, satellite-borne and ground-based); and secondly different kinds of retrieval model were summed up both at home and abroad in recent years by using hyperspectral remote sensing data; and finally the direction of future development of LAI remote sensing inversion was analyzed. %K airborne %K area %K basic %K biophysical %K biophysical parameter %K canopy %K carbon %K China %K component %K crop yield %K data %K development %K ecological %K ecosystem %K estimation %K flux %K ground-based measurement %K hyperspectral remote sensing %K journal articles %K LAI %K land surface %K landscape %K leaf area index %K mapping %K measurement %K methodology %K model %K modeling %K processes %K remote sensing %K research %K research program %K retrieval model %K sensor %K simulation %K spatially explicit %K structure %K technique %K water %K yield %U http://www.gpxygpfx.com/en/gkll.asp %P 3319-3323
