Open-sourced Implementation of the DEBRA Algorithm
ringsaturn/shachen The DEBRA algorithm (Miller et al. 2017, doi:10.1002/2017JD027365) is a method I have been following for a long time for identifying dust from satellite data. The unique aspect of this algorithm is its background estimation method, which avoids interference from special ground backgrounds such as deserts and lakebeds. Furthermore, the algorithm is designed for highly targeted engineering applications, aiming to be an all-weather recognition algorithm that provides users with fast, high-contrast output, bypassing the traditional need to introduce aerosol optical thickness.
