The Product Specifications for <strong>ASTER</strong> Level-1:<br />

Algorithm Theoretical Basis Documents (ATBDs) are detailed documents put together by the<br />
Principal Investigator(s) for a particular product. They provide an introduction, overview,<br />
theoretical description of the algorithm, the mathematics, programming and implementation<br />
considerations, constraints, limitations and assumptions. This is the definite source of<br />
information for the serious researcher who requires a lot of background information on theory,<br />
methodology and further references.<br />
The ATBDs for <strong>ASTER</strong> Level-1 and higher-level products can be accessed from:<br />
