Author:Vhengani, L; Lubbe, M; Griffith, D; Lysko, MDate:Oct 2010The success or failure of any earth observation mission depends on the quality of its data. Data quality is assessed by determining the radiometric, spatial, spectral and geometric fidelity of the satellite sensor. The process is termed calval. ...Read more

Author:Griffith, D; Lysko, M; Bezuidenhout, DDate:Jul 2009Internationally, the remote observation of Earth is rapidly maturing alongside the need for higher accuracy in radiance measurements. Accuracy of, and confidence in Earth radiance measurements is vital for applications such as climate change ...Read more
Author:Monem, S; Singh, A; Karsten, AE; Amin, R; Harith, MADate:Dec 2015Tissue simulators, the so-called tissue phantoms, have been used to mimic human tissue for spectroscopic applications. Phantoms’ design depends on patterning the optical properties, namely absorption and scattering coefficients which characterize ...Read more
Author:Leigh, L; Helder, D; Behnert, I; Deadman, A; Fox, N; Leloglu, UM; Özen, H; Griffith, DDate:Jul 2011The Tuz Gölü site does demonstrate some challenges for being used as an absolute calibration site. These include: spatial and temporal variability on the order of +/- 0.02, atmospheric transmittance variability on the order of between 0.52 ...Read more
