Coefficients for the SMACPy atmospheric correction algorithm

This dataset stores coefficients used by the updated Simplified Method for Atmospheric Correction - Python (SMACPy). The coefficients are used, together with meteorological data, to remove the effects of atmospheric gases and aerosols from a satellite image.

Currently, this is a beta version and more updates to these coefficients may be expected in the future.

Coefficients exist for various aerosol types, all defined from the equivalent 6S (10.1109/36.581987) aerosol types:

BIOMA: Biomass burning plumes.

CONTI: Continental aerosol.

DESER: Desert dust aerosol.

MARIT: Maritime aerosol, primarily sea salt.

STRATO: Stratospheric aerosol.

URBAN: Urban pollution aerosol.

NOAER: A profile with no aerosol effects, just atmospheric gases and Rayleigh scattering.
