Abstract

A method for uncertainty evaluation of vicarious calibration for solar reflection channels (visible to near infrared) of spaceborne radiometers is proposed. Reflectance based at sensor radiance estimation method for solar reflection channels of radiometers onboard remote sensing satellites is also proposed. One of examples for vicarious calibration of LISA: Line Imager Space Application onboard LISAT: LAPAN-IPB Satellite is described. Through the preliminary analysis, it is found that the proposed uncertainty evaluation method is appropriate. Also, it is found that percent difference between DN: Digital Number derived radiance and estimated TOA: Top of the Atmosphere radiance (at sensor radiance) ranges from 3.5 to 9.6 %. It is also found that the percent difference at shorter wavelength (Blue) is greater than that of longer wavelength (Near Infrared: NIR). In comparison to those facts to those of Terra/ASTER/VNIR, it is natural and reasonable.
