Ocean Color - Simultaneous Marine and Aerosol Retrieval Tool (OC-SMART) is a multi-sensor data analysis platform designed to retrieve aerosol and ocean color products from satellite remote sensing images. OC-SMART utilizes multilayer neural networks (MLNNs) driven by extensive radiative transfer simulations using our coupled atmosphere-ocean RT model (AccuRT) to perform atmospheric correction (AC) and ocean IOP retrievals.
The most comprehensive description of the OC-SMART algorithms is provided in this paper:
