Description

This file contains the FIRSTLOOK Radiometric camera-by-camera Cloud Mask (RCCM) dataset produced using ancillary inputs (RCCT) from the previous time period. It is used to determine whether a scene is clear, cloudy or dusty (over ocean). (Suggested Usage: The RCCM is used during geophysical parameter retrievals. In the TOA/Cloud Product,RCCM is combined with stereoscopically derived cloud mask to 1) establish values of the Reflecting Level Reference Altitude,2) determine how a scene is classified for choosing angular integration coefficients for establishing TOA albedos,and 3) calculate regional scene classifiers. Retrieval of Aerosol/Surface Product properties requires the abscence of clouds,for retrieval assumptions to be valid.)
