9-6 Humidity
Humidity remains in the atmosphere even on bright days. Water of all three
states can be found naturally in the atmosphere: liquid (rain, fog, and clouds),
solid (snowflakes, ice crystals), and gas (water vapor). Water in any state is
an obstacle to accurate temperature measurements. When the wave passes
through the water particles, a part of its energy is absorbed and a part is
scattered. Therefore the electromagnetic wave is attenuated.
Users can correct for atmospheric attenuation due to humidity by defining the
value using the input field.
6-7 Histogram
The bottom right corner of the screen plots image information in the form of a
histogram or a 3D rendering. It also allows users to visualize the temperature
data over time for any/all ROIs placed on the image; the last image below shows
a plot for three Regions of Interest.
