✨ Topic: radiometric conversion ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the radiometric conversion corner of GRASS GIS πŸ’… this is where we take raw sensor numbers and turn them into actual science β€” radiance, reflectance, brightness temperature, the whole glow-up. no cap. two modules live here and they're both iconic in their own way πŸ‘‘


πŸ› οΈ the modules (aka the main characters)

  • i.aster.toar β€” Calculates Top of Atmosphere Radiance/Reflectance/Brightness Temperature from ASTER DN. so like… you feed it ASTER Digital Numbers and it hands you back the fancy atmospheric-top versions. obsessed. 🌈
  • i.landsat.toar β€” Calculates top-of-atmosphere radiance or reflectance and temperature for Landsat MSS/TM/ETM+/OLI πŸ›°οΈ fr fr, it handles the whole Landsat family tree β€” MSS, TM, ETM+, and OLI. one module, four sensors, main character energy.
