Atmospheric correction using ENVI Flaash

Hiking & Activities

What is Flaash atmospheric correction?

FLAASH is a first-principles atmospheric correction tool that corrects wavelengths in the visible through near-infrared and shortwave infrared regions, up to 3 µm. (For thermal regions, use the Toolbox option Radiometric Correction > Thermal Atmospheric Correction.)

What are the methods for atmospheric correction?

Dark object subtraction, radiative transfer models, and atmospheric modeling are common techniques used to correct atmospheric disturbances. Some satellite data are delivered as surface reflectance such as the Landsat Surface Reflectance products available on the USGS Earth Explorer.

Which atmospheric correction method is most useful for easy detection of haze from the images and why?

Answer: Spatial “information based correction”: “spatial matching of clear and hazy regions of an image” is method used for detection of haze from the images.

What is atmospheric correction in photogrammetry?

Atmospheric correction is the process of removing the scattering and absorption effects of the atmosphere on the reflectance values of images taken by satellite or airborne sensors.

Is atmospheric correction necessary?

In general, atmospheric correction is unnecessary prior to unsupervised image classification or change detection. Chinsu et al. (2015) suggest that atmospheric correction will not improve the accuracy of results in land use and land cover (LULC) classification.

Why is atmospheric correction of an image done?

The atmospheric correction process produce a new image that has been almost free from atmospheric disturbances. The atmospheric correction by FLAASH method can be used to improve the shallow water object reflectance pattern on SPOT-7 images according to reference data.

What are the three types of atmospheric stability?

Three Types of Stability

  • An unstable atmosphere will enhance or encourage the vertical movement of air.
  • A stable atmosphere will suppress or resist vertical motion.
  • A neutral atmosphere will neither suppress nor enhance vertical motion.


What are 5 major atmospheric measurements that can be taken?

In this module, we will learn about the weather instruments that meteorologists use to measure temperature, moisture, pressure, wind speed, and rainfall.

What are the three types of atmospheric circulation?

ENVI Tutorial 6: Atmospheric correction of satellite Image …

Why is atmospheric correction important in remote sensing?

The objective of atmospheric correction is to determine true surface reflectance values by removing atmospheric effects from satellite images. Atmospheric correction is arguably the most important part of the pre-processing of satellite remotely sensed data and any omission produces erroneous results.

What is atmospheric effect in remote sensing?

Before radiation used for remote sensing reaches the Earth’s surface it has to travel through some distance of the Earth’s atmosphere. Particles and gases in the atmosphere can affect the incoming light and radiation. These effects are caused by the mechanisms of scattering and absorption.

What is atmospheric window in remote sensing?

The places where energy passes through are called “atmospheric windows”. We use these “windows” in remote sensing to peer into the atmosphere from which we can obtain much information concerning the weather. Most of the sun’s energy comes from visible light and the near infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
