Landsat 8–9 geometric and radiometric calibration and characterization Landsat 8–9 geometric and radiometric calibration and characterization
The U.S. Geological Survey Earth Resources Observation and Science Cal/Val (Calibration and Validation) Center of Excellence is a global leader in improving the accuracy, precision, and quality of remote-sensing data. Calibration is the process of quantitatively defining a system’s response to known and controlled signal inputs. Validation is the process of assessing, by independent...

Validation of the geometric accuracy of airborne light detection and ranging data for eastern Iowa, 2019 Validation of the geometric accuracy of airborne light detection and ranging data for eastern Iowa, 2019
A geometric accuracy assessment of lidar data collected in eastern Iowa in 2019 as part of the 3D Elevation Program (3DEP) was conducted. The assessment involved evaluating interswath accuracy, same surface precision, point density, absolute accuracy, and consistency with adjacent 3DEP datasets. The results demonstrate that the data meet or exceed the quality level 2 specifications...

Landsat surface product validation instrumentation: The BigMAC exercise Landsat surface product validation instrumentation: The BigMAC exercise
Users of Earth remotely sensed optical imagery are increasingly demanding a surface reflectance or surface temperature product instead of the top-of-atmosphere products that have been produced historically. Validating the accuracy of surface products remains a difficult task since it involves assessment across a range of atmospheric profiles, as well as many different land surface types...
