Since now I was working with images of RESOURCESAT-1 (IRS P6) LISS III and this valuew were available in a .txt file. Now I have to do the same work using an image of RESOURCESAT-2 (IRS 7) LISS III but in the .xml file with the metadata there are only the offset valuew of the satellite. So, where I have to look in order to find the sun azimuth and the sun elevation angle of RESOURCESAT-2 (IRS 7) LISS III? Its exatmospheric band are the same with IRS P6?
Thank you in advance!
Earlier for RESOURCESAT-1 (IRS P6) data the header information was made available in Leader file. The file can be only read in specific commercial softawares like SDIS. But now for RESOURCESAT-2 (IRS P6) header information made available with data set in .txt file that included all information(gain, offset, path/row, sun elevation) required for further pre-(atmospheric correction) and post processing (NDVI...).
For IRS P6 all information were available in a "ssd.txt file". For IRS 7 there isn't this file. The only file is a "metadata.xml" that does not contain the sun azimuth angle, sun elevation angle etc.
Hope this is useful

I´m downloading the LISS3 images of RS2 on the INPE catalog (Brazilian Institute for Space Research). They provide a txt file (META.txt), where you can find the parameters.

Hi,
There is a text file named metadata accompanied with the original distributed data. you can find the needed data on this file.
how can i understand if the sun is in zenith or not for sentinel imagery? Ataollah Ebrahimi Hugo Bendini
