dc.description.abstractEmpirical line methods are frequently used to correct images from remote sensing. This method is performed in two steps: the first stage finds the calibration equation representing the data interval and the second step transforms the image data into the quantity established from the equation. Several works have been successfully applied empirical lines over land areas, but it is still a great challenge to correct images from waterbodies. Remote sensing of aquatic environments captures only a small amount of energy because the water absorbs much of it. The response signal of the water is smaller than the signal from other land surface targets. This work presents a new approach to calibrate empirical lines combining reference panels with a water point. For this purpose, we evaluated several combinations of targets using both linear and exponential fit. The best matching was provided with an exponential fit using a single grey reference panel combined with a water point resulting in a coefficient of determination about 0.87, a root-mean-squared error of 0.002 sr−1 and a mean absolute percentage error of 18%. This approach presented suitable results to derive reflectance data from the raw digital numbers from images.en
