Summary: | In this study, an on-orbit radiometric calibration campaign of the GF5-02 AHSI was performed at the RadCalNet Baotou site, based on the automated observation of reflectance and atmospheric parameters of a 300 m × 300 m homogeneous desert area. The consistency of the radiometric calibration coefficients was validated both at the Dunhuang calibration site and the Baotou site. The average relative difference between the calibrated top-of-atmospheric (TOA) radiance and the predicted TOA radiance were less than 7%. The R<sup>2</sup> of these two TOA radiances were all higher than 0.99. These results showed that the accuracy of calibration coefficients could meet the requirements of hyperspectral quantification applications. The uncertainty of GF5-02 AHSI radiometric calibration was 6.18%. This study also demonstrated that automated observation data of the Baotou site were reliable for high-frequency radiometric calibration and radiometric performance monitoring of GF5-02 AHSI. |
