Abstract

Airborne remote sensing systems using the earth's surface as a reflector are suffering from the differential reflectance properties of the topographic targets. For example, the errors associated with ozone monitoring in the thermal infrared can reach up to 70 ppb.km ¹⁾. This paper proposes a scheme which can reduce this margin remarkably, however, on the penalty of increased technical complexity.
