The confidence check ATBD defines the OLCI classification flags and details of example quality flags that will provide the end users with confidence in the OLCI products.

This ATBD describes the impact of the relevant absorption features due to atmospheric gases within the spectral domain of OLCI. Procedures will be discussed to correct the influence of atmospheric ...

The aim of the classification is to distinguish water and land i.e. it will be designed to separate pixels into the water and land chains as there is currently no OLCI atmospheric processing chain. ...

This ATBD describes the algorithm for the determination of inherent optical properties (IOPs) and the concentration of water constituents in case 2 waters from water leaving radiance reflectance sp ...

This ATBD describes the retrieval of water vapour from OLCI measurements above land, ocean and clouds.

The purpose of this algorithm is to determine the correction for NIR reflectance needed for the full atmosphere correction model - applied to visible wavelengths.

The purpose of this document is to lay out algorithms for the sea water transparency products.

The purpose of this document is to lay out algorithms for the OLCI ocean colour products in Case 1 waters.

The purpose of this document is to lay out the OLCI atmospheric correction algorithm above Case 1 waters.

This Algorithmic Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD) describes the algorithm used to estimate chlorophyll content over land from Level-1 OLCI products from the Sentinel-3 mission. The algorithm calle ...

Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) reaching the ocean surface is defined as the quantum energy flux from the Sun in the spectral range 400-700 nm; units are Einstein/m2/day. PAR is essential ...

The purpose of this ATBD is to define the approach to white cap correction that could be applied to OLCI.

This document aims at providing a comprehensive description of the OLCI instrument's spectral characteristics and their potential impact on algorithms likely to expect data acquired at a constant w ...

This ATBD discusses the potential approaches to correct sun glint for OLCI. The amount of sun glint will be reduced as compared to MERIS; the field-of-view (FOV) is tilted to reduce the sun-glint p ...

This ATBD describes a procedure to derive the bi-directional water leaving radiance reflectances (RL_w) from top of atmosphere (TOA) radiance reflectance spectra RL_toa (L1b data) of the Ocean Land ...

This Copernicus Sentinel-3 OLCI Land User Handbook aims to provide a summary of key information needed for users interested in OLCI land products and their applications.
