Updates to the on-orbit calibration of SNPP VIIRS for ocean color applications

SPIE Proceedings, 2015
The NASA Ocean Biology Processing Group (OBPG) has continued monitoring the SNPP VIIRS on-orbit calibration since the derivation of the calibration for Reprocessing 2014.0 of the VIIRS ocean color data set. That calibration was based on solar and lunar observations through July 2014.

Comparison of Instrument Calibration Performance for the SNPP ATMS and JPSS1 ATMS

IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018
The Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS) is a microwave radiometer instrument designed, built, and tested by Northrop Grumman in Azusa, California. Data from ATMS is used in ground processing algorithms to produce atmospheric temperature and moisture profiles, as well as precipitation rates, snow and ice coverage.

Examination of the Angular Dependence of the SNPP VIIRS Solar Diffuser BRDF Degradation Factor

Proceedings of SPIE, 2014
Modern Earth-orbiting Earth-observing remote sensing sensors often use onboard solar diffusers (SD) to calibrate their reflective solar bands (RSB), such as the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) aboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) satellite.

Performance of the SNPP and NOAA-20 CrIS Sensor Data Record Products

IGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019
In this work, the current performance of the calibrated Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) Cross-track Infrared Sensor (CrIS) observations is reported. The CrIS instrument is currently on-board the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) and NOAA-20 spacecraft, and planned for the JPSS-2, -3 and -4 satellites.

Improvements in the calibration of the SNPP VIIRS day-night band (Conference Presentation)

Earth Observing Systems XXII, 2017
We present improvements to the on-orbit calibration of the day-night band (DNB) of the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) on the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) satellite. Most important among the improvements is the expansion of the “sweet spot” from 4 o to 7.8o to increase the number of the fully illuminated scans for

Functional form of the radiometric equation for the SNPP VIIRS reflective solar bands

SPIE Proceedings, 2016
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) aboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) satellite is a passive scanning radiometer and an imager, observing radiative energy from the Earth in 22 spectral bands from 0.41 to 12 m which include 14 reflective solar bands (RSBs).

SNPP VIIRS thermal emissive band performance after three years on-orbit

2015 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2015
The Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) spacecraft's primary sensor is the Visible-Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) which launched on October 28, 2011. It has 22 total bands with 7 thermal emissive bands (TEBs), a high dynamic range monochromatic Day Night Band (DNB) and 14 reflective solar bands (RSBs).
