Atmospheric Correction Parameter Calculator

23-Feb-11
Due to increased traffic at this site, users were mistakenly viewing other users' results when clicking on the "Summary output file" and/or the "MODTRAN4.0 tp5 file". I've modified the linked files to have time stamp specific filenames rather than generic filenames, so each user should only see files that they generated. The files that were emailed should be unaffected, but please email me if you see problems.

Enter the parameters for which you wish calculate atmospheric transmission and upwelling radiance:

Year: Month: Day:
GMT Hour: Minute:
Latitude:
+ is North, - is South 		Longitude:
+ is East, - is West
  Use atmospheric profile for closest integer lat/long help
  Use interpolated atmospheric profile for given lat/long help
  Use mid-latitude summer standard atmosphere for upper atmospheric profile help
  Use mid-latitude winter standard atmosphere for upper atmospheric profile help
  Use Landsat-7 Band 6 spectral response curve
  Use Landsat-5 Band 6 spectral response curve
  Output only atmospheric profile, do not calculate effective radiances
Optional: Surface Conditions
(If you do not enter surface conditions, model predicted surface conditions will be used.
If you do enter surface conditions, all four conditions must be entered.)
Altitude (km): Pressure (mb):
Temperature (C): Relative Humidity (%):
Results will be sent to the following address:
