Abstract
Sensor calibration increases the probability of mission success by quantifying the sensor’s response to known radiometric input, characterizing the interactions between the sensor's components, and allowing systematic errors to be discovered and resolved before launch. This poster provides guidelines for conducting a successful EO sensor calibration campaign. It is intended for use by managers, technical oversight personnel, scientists, and engineers as a useful reference in planning and carrying out a sensor calibration.
This content of this poster is based on a publication titled Guidelines for Radiometric Calibration of Electro-Optical Instruments for Remote Sensing. The publication is based on the authors' many years of combined experience planning, reviewing, preparing, conducting, analyzing, implementing, and reporting on a variety of calibration efforts. Authors involved with this publication include, in alphabetical order: Daniel Bancroft, Jim Butler, Changyong Cao, Raju Datla, Scott Hansen, Dennis Helder, Raghu Kacker, Harri Latvakoski, Martin Mlynczak, Tom Murdock, James Peterson, David Pollock, Ray Russell, Deron Scott, John Seamons, Tom Stone, Joe Tansock, Alan Thurgood, Richard Williams, Xiaoxiong (Jack) Xiong, and Howard Yoon.
