options.calc_directional && options.calc_ebal

The output files are stored in folder Directions of your output

Note

This is an optional output that requires options.calc_directional & options.calc_ebal However, the folder will always be created

Directional/Angles (SunAngle x.xx degrees).dat

Contains the directions.

• The 1st row gives the observation zenith angles

• The 2nd row gives the observation azimuth angles

• The 3rd row gives the solar zenith angles (constant from input_data.xlsx)

columns - combination number (a set of direction used for simulation)

Columns in the output files correspond to the columns in Angles

Directional/BRDF (SunAngle x.xx degrees).dat

• The 1st column gives the wl values corresponding to the BRDF values

• Other columns give the BRDF values corresponding to the directions given by observation zenith angles (first column in the Angles file)

variable	units	description
wlS	nm	full wl range SCOPE
brdf_	-	bidirectional reflectance distribution function

Directional/Temperatures (SunAngle x.xx degrees).dat

• The 1st column gives the wl values corresponding to the brightness temperature values (except for broadband)

• Other columns give the brightness temperature (BT) values corresponding to the directions given by a column in the Angles file

variable	units	description
BrightnessT	K	brightness temperature
options.calc_planck
wlT	nm	thermal wl range SCOPE
Lot_	W m-2 um-1 sr-1	outgoing thermal radiation in observation direction

Directional/Fluorescence (SunAngle x.xx degrees).dat

if options.calc_fluor

• The 1st column gives the wl values corresponding to the brightness temperature values (except for broadband)

• Other columns give the fluorescence corresponding to the directions given by a column in the Angles file

variable	units	description
wlF	nm	fluorescence wl range SCOPE
LoF_	W m-2 um-1 sr-1	outgoing fluorescence radiation in observation direction
