Haze reduction may be used as a preprocessing step for computing TOAreflectances. This combination can yield the cleanest multispectral band data asthe effects of solar irradiation variables and atmospheric variables are removedfrom the data set. See Section 47 for more information on TOA Reflectance.Haze reductions are commonly applied to only the visible multispectral bands, asthe infrared (IR) bands are less susceptible to haze. Both the Dark Area andHOT algorithms are offered as three file methods. PANCROMA also offers theHOT algorithm in a six file and seven-file implementation. Select ‘File’ | ‘Open’.After your files have loaded, select ‘Preprocess’ | ‘Haze Reduction’ | ‘HazeOptimized Transform’ | ‘Six Band’ or ‘Preprocess’ | ‘Haze Reduction’ | ‘HazeOptimized Transform’ | ‘Seven Band’. It is doubtful whether applying a hazereduction method to the thermal infrared (TIR) band 6 makes much sense inmost cases. However both are offered. It is possible to perform a hazereduction on all seven Landsat bands for example and then select as many asjudged necessary for further processing.147
