Abstract
ESA GlobAlbedo Broadband BRDF
3.2.6 Merged BRDF Product
As output from the BBDR (Broadband Directional Reflectance) to BRDF processing chain, a final ‘merged’ BRDF product is generated. This product merges the two BRDF products for Snow/NoSnow pixels as described above into one product. The merged product serves as input for the final albedo retrieval as well as for the resampling and the mosaicking of the tile-based BRDF uncertainties into a global product.
