Real-time UV index retrieval in Europe using Earth observation-based techniques: system description and quality assessment

<p>This study introduces an Earth observation (EO)-based system which is capable of operationally estimating and continuously monitoring the ultraviolet index (UVI) in Europe. UVIOS (i.e., UV-Index Operating System) exploits a synergy of radiative transfer models with high-performance computin...
