To specify visibility and ground reflectance:
For more information, see About aerosol types.
By default, the atmospheric condition is estimated based on the image-acquisition date and center coordinates. For more information, see About standard atmospheres.
That is, you can only add or enter a value when the sensor provides tilt capability. Typically, the value is updated automatically based on the AcrossTrackAngle metadata tag of the image.
That is, by default, the ATCOR workflows use a constant visibility of 30 kilometers; however, you can specify a value up to 180.
For information on the settings, see Varying Visibility settings.
The program will compute a visibility map for the scene, using Dark Vegetation pixels. These are defined based on NDVI and top-of-the-atmosphere reflectance in the red band.
The file you select must be reprojectable to the image, and the image must be fully contained within the visibility map.
For more information, see About adjacency.
That is, select the number of times to apply the adjacency-effects correction.
That is, digital imagery of mountainous regions can contain a radiometric distortion known as a topographic effect. You can reduce this effect by applying transformations, such as the Lambertian or non-Lambertian reflectance models.
To verify or modify the normalization settings, click Settings, and then proceed to Setting up normalization.
