Comparison of RO-Estimated ATMS Biases Between NOAA-20 and S-NPP

IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018
The Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS)-1 satellite, also known as National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)-20, was successfully launched onto a sun-synchronous orbit on November 18, 2017. One of the instruments carried on NOAA-20 is the Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS).

Reprocessing of S-NPP VIIRS DNB detector gains and dark offsets

Earth Observing Systems XXIV, 2019
In this paper, we report a new method for calculating the S-NPP VIIRS Day-Night-Band (DNB) detector dark offsets and gains look-up-tables. During the seven years of S-NPP operation, the NASA VIIRS Characterization Support Team (VCST) has generated detector gain and dark offset calibration coefficients to be used in the DNB L1B Earth view radiance ...

Reprocessing of S-NPP Environmental Data Records Using Enterprise Algorithms: Plans and Preparations

IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018
The Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership NPP satellite, which was launched in October 2011 as the predecessor to the recently launched Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS-1, November 11, 2017) satellite has been extremely successful in operations for the last six years.

Preliminary JPSS-3 VIIRS Polarization Sensitivity and Comparison with S-NPP, JPSS-1 and ‐2

IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020
The Visible-Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) was first launched on-board the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) spacecraft in October of 2011. There have been three subsequent builds of the VIIRS sensor for the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) program with JPSS-1, ‐2 and ‐3 having launch dates of November 2017, March 2022 and

Assessment of S-NPP VIIRS band-to-band registration using Earth-scene features

Earth Observing Systems XXII, 2017
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) is currently operating onboard the Suomi National Polarorbiting Partnership (S-NPP) spacecraft. VIIRS records Earth imagery with spectral bands ranging from 0.4 to 12.2 micrometers at a combination of resolutions.

On-orbit radiometric performance characterization of S-NPP VIIRS reflective solar bands

SPIE Proceedings, 2016
It has been nearly four years that the S-NPP was launched. In an effort to improve the VIIRS calibration, VIIRS has undergone a number of major look up table updates during this period. RSB bands such as M1 through M3 suggested higher solar diffuser degradation rate.

Analysis of S-NPP VIIRS RSB bands detector saturation status and its change with time

Earth Observing Systems XXIII, 2018
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the S-NPP satellite has been in successful operation for more than six years. One of the key performance parameters of the instrument detectors is the saturation of their digital counts (DN). For VIIRS, when the scene spectral radiance level is high enough, before reaching the digital maximum ...

S-NPP advanced technology microwave sounder: Reflector emissivity model, mitigation, & verification

2013 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium - IGARSS, 2013
The Suomi NPP spacecraft pitchover maneuver revealed an ATMS scan angle-dependent bias when viewing deep space, which is a homogenous and unpolarized source that fills the entire ATMS Field of Regard. Reflector emissivity was investigated as a possible root cause. The emissivity is polarization dependent, which results in a scan-dependent bias with the

Using the Moon to evaluate the radiometric calibration performance of S-NPP VIIRS thermal emissive bands

SPIE Proceedings, 2014
The Suomi-NPP VIIRS thermal emissive bands (TEB) are radiometrically calibrated on-orbit with reference to a blackbody (BB) operated at a nominal temperature of approximately 292.5 K. The quality of the calibration can be evaluated at other temperature ranges using independent thermal sources.

Evaluation of different calibration approaches for S-NPP CRIS full spectral resolution SDR processing

2015 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2015
The Cross-track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) on Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership Satellite (S-NPP) is a Fourier transform spectrometer and provides a total of 1305 and 2211 channels in normal spectral resolution (NSR) mode and full spectral resolution (FSR) mode, respectively, for sounding the atmosphere.
