This new network component called AERONET \u2013 Ocean Color (AERONET-OC), provides the additional capability of measuring the radiance emerging from the sea  (i.e., water-leaving radiance) with modified sun-photometers installed on offshore platforms like lighthouses, oceanographic and oil towers. AERONET-OC is instrumental in satellite ocean color validation activities through standardized measurements a) performed at different sites with a single measuring system and protocol, b) calibrated with an identical reference source and method, and c) processed with the same code.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "http://aeronet.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/type_piece_of_map_seaprism_new?long1=-180&long2=180&lat1=-90&lat2=90&multiplier=2&what_map=4&nachal=1&formatter=0&level=1", "format": "HTML", "mediaType": "text/html"}], "identifier": "NASA-0000007", "issued": "2018-06-25", "keyword": ["aerosols", "clouds", "earth-science", "inversions", "precipitable-water", "radiation", "satellite"], "landingPage": "http://aeronet.gsfc.nasa.gov/new_web/ocean_color.html", "modified": "2025-03-31", "programCode": ["026:001"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "National Aeronautics and Space Administration"}, "references": ["http://aeronet.gsfc.nasa.gov/new_web/Documents/Feb232011.zip", "http://aeronet.gsfc.nasa.gov/new_web/Documents/Feb242011.zip"], "spatial": "Global", "temporal": "2002-01-01/2014-01-01", "theme": ["Earth Science"], "title": "AERONET-OCEAN COLOR"}
