2.a Convert Radiance

2.a.i. Purpose

Convert observations from both instruments to a common definition of radiance to allow direct comparison.

2.a.ii. General Options

2.a.ii.v0.1.

The instruments’ observations are converted from Level 1.5/1b/1c data to radiances, using pre-defined, published algorithms specific for each instrument.

2.a.iii. Infrared GEO-LEO inter-satellite/inter-sensor Class

2.a.iii.v0.1

Perform comparison in radiance units: mW/m²/st/cm^-1.
