Abstract
The Crosstrack Infrared Sounder (CrIS) is a spaceborne Fourier Transform Spectrometer (FTS). The flight module 1 (FM1) is currently flying onboard the SUOMI-NPP satellite that was launched on October 28th 2011. Three distinct subjects are presented: (1) Statistics on the long term monitoring system are presented focusing on the instrument stability, the data quality flags, and anomaly detection, (2) Validation effort of the CrIS SDR algorithm prototype that can generate radiance at high resolution, (3) The flight module 2 (FM2) which is scheduled to be launched onboard the JPSS-1 satellite in 2017 has just undergone the bench testing. Analysis of the bench data are presented here focusing on the laser ILS, the noise (NEdN), and the instrument stability.
