Given a passive sensor on a meteorological satellite Pyspectral provides the

relative spectral response (rsr) function(s) and offer you some basic

operations like convolution with the solar spectrum to derive the in band solar

flux, for instance. The focus is on imaging sensors like AVHRR, VIIRS, MODIS, ABI,

AHI, OLCI and SEVIRI. But more sensors are included and if others are needed they can

be easily added. With Pyspectral it is possible to derive the reflective and

emissive parts of the signal observed in any NIR band around 3-4 microns where

both passive terrestrial emission and solar backscatter mix the information

received by the satellite. Furthermore Pyspectral allows correcting true color

imagery for the background (climatological) atmospheric signal due to Rayleigh

scattering of molecules, absorption by atmospheric gases and aerosols, and Mie

scattering of aerosols.
