Overview

MAJA (for Maccs-Atcor Joint Algorithm), is an atmospheric correction and cloud screening software based on the MACCS processor, developped for CNES by CS GROUP - France, from a method and a prototype developped at CESBIO. In 2017, thanks to an agreement between CNES and DLR and to some funding from ESA, we started adding methods from DLR 's atmospheric correction software ATCOR into MACCS. MACCS then became MAJA.

Currently, Maja allows the following processing steps:

  • Atmospheric correction
  • Cloud detection
  • Estimation of the Aerosol-Optical-Depth (AOT)
  • Correction of environmental- and slope-effects

Supported products: Sentinel-2, VENμS, Landsat 8/9, Spot World Heritage and soon Pleiades World Heritage.
