Passive Ground‐Based Optical Techniques for Monitoring the On‐Orbit ICESat‐2 Altimeter Geolocation and Footprint Diameter
Abstract Corner cube retro‐reflectors (CCRs), passive optical components, are used to independently evaluate the geolocation accuracy and effective laser footprint diameter of NASA's laser altimetry mission, ICESat‐2, at two specific study sites: White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico and alon...
