Coupling Simulated Ocean Reflectance to the Atmospheric Correction of Hyperspectral Images

Abstract

Aircraft and satellite Remote Sensing [RS] platforms provide spatial and temporal coverage of oceanic water conditions that are unobtainable by any other cost effective means. The hope of Hyperspectral RS [HRS] data is that it will provide the necessary data stream to simultaneously describe the atmospheric and water column optical properties. The goal of these hyperspectral programs is to develop the instruments, platforms, and data analysis techniques to achieve the depth-dependent description of atmospheric and water column Inherent Optical Properties [IOPs].
