AComp 101
■ AComp is based on physically normalizing digital numbers (DN) values to a
surface reflectance value.
■ Using surface reflectance values represents a significant improvement over
arbitrary DN values by ensuring consistency and full spectral fidelity across
space and time.
■ AComp, a proprietary Maxar algorithm mitigates the presence of haze and
atmospheric effects.
