This Algorithm Theoretical Basis document (ATBD) describes the algorithms used to produce the OLCI Level 1b Radiometric Product from Raw Data and accompanying geo-referencing and external data anno ...

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 ...

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

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

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.

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 ...

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.

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. ...
