MODIS_RADIANCE - script to convert IMAPP-calibrated HDF scaled integers to TDF MODIS radiance units (W/m^2/micrometer/steradian/micron).

SYNOPSIS

MODIS_RADIANCE  [cal250.hdf cal500.hdf cal1000.hdf]

DESCRIPTION

MODIS_RADIANCE converts IMAPP-generated HDF scaled integers to radiance units. Output radiance TeraScan data sets will have units of W/m^2/micrometer/steradian/micron. Radiance values are generated dynamically using radiance scales and offsets provided in the HDF files. The TeraScan function modis_bright can be used to convert the radiance units in the emissive bands to brightness temperature units.
