Line Stripping
• Line stripping is far more common than line dropouts.
• Often occurs due to non identical detector response although the detector for all satellite sensors
are carefully calibrated and matched before the launch of satellite.
• With time response of some detectors may drift to higher or lower levels results every scan line
recorded by that detector is brighter or darker than other line.
• Its important to understand valid data are present in the defective line.
How to correct…..?
o Histogram matching.
o Separate histogram corresponding to each detector unit are constructed and matched.
o Taking one response as a standard and gain (Rate of increase of DN) and offset for all detector unit
are suitably adjusted and new DN values are compared and assigned.
o This yields a destriped image in which all DN values conform the reference level and scale.
Random noise or spike noise
• The periodic line dropouts and striping are forms of non random noise that may
be recognized and restored by simple means.
• Random noise on the other hand requires a more sophisticated restoration
method such as digital filtering
• Such errors may be due to errors during transmission of data or temporary
disturbance.
• Some pixels acquire DN values that are much higher or lower than the
surrounding pixel.
• Can be detected mutually comparing neighbouring pixel value.
• If neighbouring values of pixel differ by more than a specific threshold margin it
is designated as a spike noise and DN is replaced by interpolation DN value based
on the surrounding pixel

Relative AC methods
Two Reference Surfaces
• The output of this method is an image that matches a reflectance that is compatible with
the atmosphere of similar image taken on other previous date.
• This method works on the individual band/channel basis and valid to establish a uniform
comparison basis to study.
• For instance the evolution of non flux related parameters like indexes or land properties
derived directly or indirectly from a band.
• This method is relay on existence of at least one dark and one bright invariant area.
• Relative invariant areas are considered to retain their reflective properties over time .
• The atmospheric composition is unknown in the two imaged but their influence is
measurable by calculating difference in radiance between the two dates on the reflective
invariant areas.
• The procedure defines one image as master and other is slave.
Absolute AC methods based on Atmospheric processes
• These methods require a description of the components in the atmospheric
profile.
• The output of these methods is an image that matches the reflectance of
the ground pixels with maximum estimated error of 10%.if atmospheric
profiling is adequate enough.
• The advantage of these methods is that ground reflectance can be
evaluated under any atmospheric condition, altitude and relative geometry
between sun and satellite .
• Adopt the same procedure as discussed above.
