MERIS Level 1 Radiometric Processor - Radiance-To-Reflectance Conversion Algorithm Specification

Algorithm Specification

The conversion from TOA radiance (L_TOA) to TOA reflectances (R_TOA) done by the following equation:

where E₀ and θ are the solar spectral irradiance and the sun zenith angle, respectively. Currently, only MERIS Level 1b products are supported.
