Tian Qingjiu Zheng Lanfen Tong Qingxi. Comparison and Analysis for In-Flight Calibration of SPOTBased on Methods of Test Site and On-Boarding Calibration[J]. Journal of Remote Sensing, 1998, (1). DOI: 10.11834/jrs.19980103.
This research was for in-flight SPOT calibration conducted in July
1995. SPOT HRV was calibrated by La Crau test site and on-boarding calibration methods. 65 CODE was used for test site calibration and reflectance retrieval of some ground targets. The calibration coefficient A & A’was calculated. The calibration results based on both methods were compared and analysed. The analysis results have shown that: ( 1 ) calibration precision based on test site is higher than that obtained from on-boarding calihration; (2) 65 CODE is practical and fast for calibration and reflectance retrieval; (3) there are system errors in both methods; (4) the uncertainty of calibration coefficients can be estimated by the retrieved reflectance
of some targets; (5) the reliability of calibration result is proved by the consistence in calibration precision range for both or more independent methods: (6) the calibration result difference for different calibration methods can be used to diagnose the sensor state and to correct inadequate method or some mistakes
