Simple atmospheric correction

There are several programs that can be used to apply two different approaches to simple atmospheric correction: empirical line correction and flat field correction. The following table lists the programs:

Program Description
APPLRT Apply radiometric transformations
EMPLINE Empirical line calibration
FTLOC Locate spectrally flat targets
SP2RT Convert a spectrum to a radiometric transformation

Empirical line correction and flat field correction are discussed in the following sections:

  1. Empirical line correction
  2. Flat field correction
