Figure 1: Example of partial spectral band shifts 
of 5, 10, and 15 nanometers toward 
shorter wavelengths for TM band 1. 
Figure 2: Example of full spectral band shifts of 
5, 10, and 15 nanometers toward shorter 
wavelengths for TM band 1.

Figure 3: Percentage difference between predicted and 
original surface reflectance in TM bands 1 and 
2, when partial (p) or full (f) spectral band 
shifts are assumed (see text). Note how 
surface reflectance retrieval is not exact 
even without spectral shift (Teillet, 1989).
