NOAA-20 VIIRS Reflective Solar Band Postlaunch Calibration Updates Two Years In-Orbit
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2020The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)-20 Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) was launched on November 18, 2017, and it has been operational for more than two years and follows the first Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) series of the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) mission.

Lunar calibration and performance assessments of the NOAA-20 VIIRS reflective solar bands
Earth Observing Systems XXIV, 2019The Moon has played a vital role in the radiometric stability monitoring of NASAs Earth Observing System sensors, such as MODIS on the Terra and Aqua spacecrafts. The lunar calibration methodologies developed for the two MODIS instruments were later extended to apply to the VIIRS instrument on the Suomi-NPP spacecraft. The follow-on VIIRS instrument on

Evaluation of early NOAA-20 VIIRS RSB radiometric performance using intercomparison with Aqua MODIS
Earth Observing Systems XXIII, 2018The radiometric performance of the reflective solar bands (RSBs) of NOAA-20 VIIRS, recently launched on 18 November 2017, is evaluated through an intercomparison with Aqua MODIS. The analysis adapts a “nadir-only” refinement of the simultaneous nadir overpass (SNO) to generate comparison time series for assessment of the on-orbit calibration of NOAA-20

JPSS-1/NOAA-20 VIIRS Day-Night Band Prelaunch Radiometric Calibration and Performance
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2019The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on board the first Joint Polar-Orbiting Satellite System series 1 (JPSS-1) has a panchromatic, three gain stage, day–night band (DNB) capable of imaging the Earth under illumination conditions ranging from reflected moonlight to daytime scenes. The DNB has four charged-coupled devices (CCDs) with 32

The follow-up visible infrared imaging radiometer suite (VIIRS) housed in the NOAA-20 satellite and the first of four in the NOAA Joint Polar Satellite System satellite series, was launched on 18 November 2017. The on-orbit satellite yaw maneuver operation was carried out on 25-26 January 2018 over 15 scheduled orbits to obtain responses of the ...
