Irradiance Calibration of Space-Based Infrared Sensors

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to develop a basis for irradiance calibration of space-based infrared sensors. It is an extension of previous work that fully defines the context of the calibration, and concepts of spectral composites and templates. We discuss the work carried out during the past two years directed toward the production and release of Version 2.0 of the Air Force Bright Spectra Atlas (AFBSA V2.O). This report is also the Explanatory Supplement for the AFBSA V2.O.
