Motivation

Earth-observing satellite sensors map the earth's surface properties. However, haze from water vapor and aerosol particles influence the recorded signal. In addition, in rugged terrain, varying illumination conditions (sunny and shady hills) modify the "true" spectral behavior of surfaces. Haze reduction and atmospheric correction with ATCOR eliminates haze, atmospheric and solar illumination effects. 

ATCOR for ERDAS IMAGINE® is a professional tool for every user of satellite date, no matter whether the aim is to produce a brilliant image with reduced haze content or whether you have to analyze the real reflectance values of the surface. ATCOR for ERDAS IMAGINE is your choice to get better results.
