ALGORITHMS FOR RELATIVE RADIOMETRIC CORRECTION IN EARTH OBSERVING SYSTEMS “RESOURCE-P” AND “CANOPUS-V”

The present paper has considered two algorithms of the relative radiometric correction of information obtained from a multimatrix imagery instrument of the spacecraft “Resource-P” and frame imagery systems of the spacecraft “Canopus-V”. The first algorithm is intended for elimination of vertical stripes on the image that are caused by difference in transfer characteristics of CCD matrices and CCD detectors. Correction coefficients are determined on the basis of analysis of images that are homogeneous by brightness. <br><br> The second algorithm ensures an acquisition of microframes homogeneous by brightness from which seamless images of the Earth surface are synthesized. <br><br> Examples of practical usage of the developed algorithms are mentioned
