Scientific paper

The development of a set of quantitative models to analyze planetary reflectance spectra as a function of microscopic and macroscopic mineral mixtures, particle size, and illumination geometry is considered. The approach has been to simplify more sophisticated algorithms to include the smallest number of parameters possible, consistent with being able to use them to produce useful results. This means that they should be able to model the data to within the accuracy obtainable by laboratory, telescopic, and space instrumentation (roughly 1%). The algorithms are ideally given in terms of parameters that are directly measureable (such as spectral reflectance or particle size).
