Post-Launch Calibration of Satellite Sensors: Proceedings of the International Workshop on Radiometric and Geometric Calibration, December 2003, Mississippi, USA.

by Stanley A. Morain, Amelia M. Budge

Overview

Increasingly, in the field of earth observation imagery, there is a need for image quality to be assessable in traceable Standard International Units (SIU), and for the standardization of common mapping projections. These two needs, plus the increased usage of combinations of data and image types, provided the stimuli for the development of this im
