Modelling Information Content Problems of the Radiative Transfer Theory

It is shown that, the information content of environment data that have to be retrieved, by a satellite sensor, can be modeled on the basis of a joint mathematical description taking into account both the satellite sensors and measurements data trend, and the operators set related to mutually jointed direct-inverse problem solutions and the input optical models of the “atmosphere-underlying surface system†. An example, in which the atmospheric phase function is described by three terms (Rayleigh case) is also reported to show, as particular case, the feasibility of our approach
