In this study, we proposed a new algorithm for estimating aerosol optical thickness, using satellite image data alone. The algorithm validation was made using ADEOS/AVNIR image data (taken on April 24, 1997) and the atmospheric truth data by the skyradiometer (Prede : POM-01). We found that the estimation errors in optical thickness were less than 0.04. The atmospheric correction for the AVNIR image was done and the resulting surface reflectance image showed many detailed features, compared with the original one.
