MAXAR AComp Pre-Processing
MAXAR’s Atmospheric Compensation (AComp) an algorithm that removes haze and vapor particles and is used to correct and clarify high resolution panchromatic and multi-spectral satellite images (including SWIR bands) under diverse atmospheric conditions. AComp cuts through haze providing accurate analysis to support feature extraction applications from high resolution satellite imagery from WorldView-2, WorldView-3, Pleiades Neo satellites, and many other satellite sensors.
AComp can greatly benefit to industries including energy, agriculture, defense and intelligence, mining, and disaster relief efforts.

What AComp does:
Minimizes haze effects while preserving the full spectral information in reflectance pixel values
A fully automated process, available on the entire MAXAR constellation
Significantly improves the accuracy of image mining and machine learning algorithms
Provides normalized surface reflectance values across every pixel
Facilitates cross-sensor processing, by enabling comparison across MAXAR and other satellites
Removes significant error in the comparison of images over time
Compatible across both panchromatic and multi-spectral images
