Abstract :
Deals with the problem of retrieving satellite maps of sea surface temperature (SST) and suspended sediment and pigment concentrations from Thematic Mapper (TM) data. A method for calibrating the whole satellite image is presented, based on the use of Airborne Thematic Mapper (ATM) maps over a subregion of the TM satellite scene
