Haze reduction may be useful in converting Landsat DN band files to surfacereflectance approximations. In this case you would first perform a haze reductionto reduce scattering of solar and upwelling radiation. Then compute Top ofAtmosphere (TOA) reflectance on the haze-reduced images. The result shouldmore closely approximate surface reflectances, although further correction is stillnecessary, for example for gas absorption and for aerosols that might absorb inthe non-visible regions.Future improvements will include a consolidation of the haze reduction and TOAReflectance computations and provisions to include atmospheric opticalthickness parameters.148
