CITIZEN SENSING • INNOVATION 03

Camera Radiometry.

Turn an ordinary sky photograph into a calibrated atmospheric observation.

All core measurements run in your browser. Your image stays on this device while Exur derives relative scene radiance, aerosol optical depth, and an AQI proxy.

Image conditions are suitable for radiometric estimation.

✓
Scene framing / sky purity

Atmospheric sky observation verified with valid radiance characteristics.

✓
Exposure and tonal range

Exposure has a usable tonal range.

✓
Possible cloud contamination

Little evidence of cloud-like contamination in the analyzed sky region.

✓
Useful sky coverage

Sky coverage is adequate for the heuristic analysis.

✓
Possible humidity/haze interference

No strong visual humidity/haze risk was identified; humidity is not directly measured.

✓
Direct light or glare

No strong localized glare or brightness gradient was identified.

✓
Camera metadata

Camera metadata is present and within plausible ranges.

!
Radiometric operating range (-15)

Radiometric result may be outside the reliable operating range; the calculated value remains unchanged.

✓
Missing EXIF Telemetry

Camera exposure metadata (aperture, ISO, shutter) is present in EXIF.

✓
Camera hardware signature

Sony ILCE-7M4 identified.

✓
Exposure parameter plausibility

Aperture, ISO, and shutter values are physically plausible.

✓
Sky region framing

Adequate sky visible (~89% of frame).

✓
Daylight shutter speed

Daylight shutter speed is compatible with the radiometric model.

✓
Post-processing integrity

No known editing signature detected.

✓
Temporal consistency

Capture timestamp is plausible.

06 / CORROBORATION

Independent signals.
