MAJA (MACCS ATCOR Joint Algorithm)
The MAJA (MACCS ATCOR Joint Algorithm, pronounced "maya") chain is a cloud detection and atmospheric correction chain. It is adapted to the processing of time series of high resolution images acquired under constant or quasi constant viewing angles. It can be used to process data from LANDSAT and SENTINEL-2. It is based on the MACCS chain developed by CNES and CESBIO since 2008, and gradually incorporates since 2016 methods from the ATCOR chain of DLR. It is now the subject of a collaboration between CNES, DLR and CESBIO, and is financially supported by ESA.
Its particularity is to use the multi-temporal information contained in the images to detect clouds and their shadows, to estimate the atmospheric content in aerosols and water vapor, and to correct the atmospheric effects (taking into account the environmental and relief effects).
