DESCRIPTION

i.albedo calculates the Albedo, that is the Shortwave surface reflectance in the range of 0.3-3 micro-meters. It takes input of individual bands of surface reflectance from Modis, AVHRR, Landsat or Aster and calculates the Albedo for those. This is an precursor to r.sun and any Energy-Balance processing.

NOTES

It assumes MODIS product surface reflectance in [0;10000]

TODO

Maybe change input requirement of MODIS to [0.0-1.0]?
