Use polymer v4.13 to process OLCI in the presence of thin clouds

Hello everyone, hello Francois,
I want to use polymer v4.13 to process OLCI in the presence of thin clouds in the moderately turbid waters of eastern China
Although the results look good, the overall value is relatively small compared to the actual measured value. Can I change a parameter to increase the overall value?
By the way, I am new to python, the method I deal with is to run

Code: Select all

polymer_cli.py
directly.
Thank you!

Hello,
There are many parameters that can be tuned, but most likely none that would improve your results easily. Unfortunately Polymer is known to retrieve underestimated values of water reflectance in moderately to highly turbid waters. We are doing research on this topic and hopefully this will improve in the future.
Cheers,
François
