Fancy light bulb: SIRCUS
Transfer radiometers
• Key to SIRCUS is use of highly-accurate monitoring radiometers
• 4 Silicon trap detectors have been calibrated at NIST
• 5 InGaAs detectors and 5 sphere (Si, IGA, extended IGA detectors) undergoing stability monitoring
Spectral irradiance and radiance responsivity calibrations using uniform sources (SIRCUS)

CLARREO SDT Meeting 8
G-LiHT
• Goddard's Lidar Hyperspectral and Thermal airborne imager (www.gliht.gsfc.nasa.gov)– Scanning LiDAR– Broadband thermal camera– Downwelling VNIR irradiance spectrometer– Upwelling VNIR imaging spectrometer
• Calibrating G-LiHT’s imaging spectrometer with the SOLARIS/CLARREO facility gives further experience with the SIRCUS set up– Allowed development of calibration approaches coincident with
SOLARIS hardware work– Evaluate sensor effects on calibration– Develop techniques to evaluate sphere source uniformity– Transfer of calibration to operational conditions
16-18 Apr 2013
CLARREO SDT Meeting 9
Recent G-LiHT measurements
Recent G-LiHT measurements• SIRCUS 417-~450 nm, 550-~1015nm in 1-nm interval
– This is our largest and most complete SIRCUS dataset yet– All G-LiHT measurements were coincident with Silicon trap radiometer and
ASD Handheld2 measurements• Transfer characterization of nadir pixels to off-nadir w/ white light
sphere measurements– G-LiHT has an extremely large field-of-view of 50° – ‘Nadir’ G-LiHT spatial pixels correspond to signal of silicon trap radiometer– Off-nadir pixels view area of sphere that is not monitored– Rotate G-LiHT to calibrate all detectors viewing the monitored portion of
the sphere• Impact of rotation on sphere output• Temporal stability of sphere
16-18 Apr 2013
CLARREO SDT Meeting 10
Sphere study with G-LiHT
The baffle/aperture with 4x4’’ port limits the impact of the sensor under test on sphere output
With and without baffle-aperture
G-LiHT needed to be mounted such that its spatial direction could scan a point on the back wall of the integrating sphere.
G-LiHT rotated in 2° increments so that each part of the focal plane sampled a similar area in the sphere.
16-18 Apr 2013
CLARREO SDT Meeting 11
SuitcaseSOLARIS mobile setup
Larger size and lateral offset of COTS focal plane captures Zero order of diffraction grating for further study of stray light
Highpass filter allows us to study a single order with the COTS detector without higher cost of an on-detector order sorting filter
Initial outdoor testing of SuitcaseSOLARIS field-portable system enabled by a compact COTS detector.
16-18 Apr 2013
CLARREO SDT Meeting 12
G-LiHT and SOLARIS
• The G-LiHT and SuitcaseSOLARIS work allowed for a unique opportunity after the launch of LDCM (Landsat 8)– Use the SIRCUS-based calibrated sensors as part of planned
cal/val activities for LDCM OLI– Evaluate intercalibration approaches
• Activities centered around March 29-31– LDCM was being inserted into its final orbit– Passed “under” Landsat 7 allowing cross-comparisons
between sensors on two platforms– SOLARIS team collected data at two test sites in desert
