Hi,

I would like to second Markus on that one.

We considered using AERONET for atmospheric correction in i.atcorr, but ended 
up using arbitrary / averaged values, cause AERONET data for our locations was 
very, very sparse and showed very high variation.

So, in a module, that compiles a 6s-parameter file, I would be happy if there 
was an option for providing manual values, ideally accompanied by fetching AOT 
values from other sources (e.g. AEORNET, MODIS).

Could be like in v.to.rast, where you have a “use” option (here e.g. with 
“value”, “aeronet”, “modis” choice), accompanied by “aot_value” to provide 
values manually, “aot_aeronet” option to provide input file or “aot_modis” 
which could be a raster map option the module extracts values from (producing 
that map(s) would be a user task).

Just a suggestion.

Kind regards,
Stefan

With AOT you mean aerosol optical thickness right? This is user input to 
i.atcorr. There are various sources for AOT at 550nm, e.g. MODIS.

Anyway, it is probably much easier to to write your own routine to read the 
AERONET file and get the corresponding formula for AOT than to fight with 51821 
lines of Fortran source code that is numerically unstable. Maybe I can help 
with getting AOT at 550nm from an AERONET file avoiding the Fortran version of 
6S.
