Modern Applied Mathematics for Alternative Modeling of the Atmospheric Effects on Satellite Images
TL;DR: In this article, two state-of-the-art nonparametric tools, multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS) and its successor Conic Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (CMARS), are reviewed within the frame of an earth science example.
Status of Model ATCOR4 on Atmospheric / Topographic Correction for Airborne Hyperspectral Imagery
TL;DR: ATCOR4 as mentioned in this paper calculates the surface reflectance cube from calibrated at-sensor radiances, and for a sensor with thermal channels the surface emissivity and temperature cube are computed as well.

Fusion of multiple image types for the creation of radiometrically-accurate synthetic scenes
TL;DR: Through a fusion of 3D lidar data with passive imagery, many of the required tasks in the creation of high-resolution urban DIRSIG scenes are partially-automated, reducing the man-in-the-loop requirements for many aspects of synthetic hyperspectral scene construction.
Validation of the GRAPE single view aerosol retrieval for ATSR-2 and insights into the long term global AOD trend
G. E. Thomas,Caroline Poulsen,Richard Siddans,Andrew M. Sayer,Elisa Carboni,S. H. Marsh,S. M. Dean,Roy G. Grainger,Bryan Lawrence +8 more
TL;DR: The Global Retrieval of ATSR Cloud Parameters and Evaluation (GRAPE) project has produced a global dataset of cloud and aerosol properties from the Along Track Scanning Radiometer-2 (ATSR-2) instrument, covering the time period 1995-2001 as discussed by the authors.

Numerically stable algorithm for discrete-ordinate-method radiative transfer in multiple scattering and emitting layered media.
TL;DR: An advanced, thoroughly documented, and quite general purpose discrete ordinate algorithm for time-independent transfer calculations in vertically inhomogeneous, nonisothermal, plane-parallel media for Atmospheric applications ranging from the UV to the radar region of the electromagnetic spectrum is summarized.

A description of the correlated k distribution method for modeling nongray gaseous absorption, thermal emission, and multiple scattering in vertically inhomogeneous atmospheres
Andrew A. Lacis,Valdar Oinas +1 more
TL;DR: A radiative transfer method for treating nongray gaseous absorption and thermal emission in vertically inhomogeneous multiple scattering atmospheres is described in this paper, where probability density distributions of absorption coefficient strength are derived from line-by-line calculations to construct line-By-line and band model based k distributions.
