About

Surface reflectance is a fundamental radiometric property characterizing the proportion of incident electromagnetic radiation that is scattered or reflected by a surface. This concept investigates the spectral and directional distribution of scattered light, providing crucial information about the physical and chemical composition, structure, and state of materials, which is significant for applications ranging from remote sensing and material science to computer graphics and environmental monitoring.
