Objectives of IOCP Key-Point 2 ( IOCP Week-15 ) :
- Check status , results and outcomes of PLM Operations and Calibration activities
performed since IOCP KP-1-P of 27-January-2010 ( Part 1 of MIRAS PLM
Pseudo-Operational phase : 6 GREEN Weeks 9 to 15 ) .
- A ) Define Final calibration strategy : Frequency for LO ( MIRAS Operations and
Level-2) and Short calibration ( Confirm it is Not needed )
- B ) Preliminary assessment of Dual and Full-Pol measurement modes after 6
GREEN Weeks of Pseud-OP
- C ) Detailed analysis of Dual and Full-Pol at Levels L1 and L2 ( SM/OS )
o Evaluation of L1 and L2 data products quality
o Release L1 and L2 data products to SVRT Teams
- D ) Finalisation of LICEF PMS Cold Sky calibration + Impacts at L1OP
- E ) Approve Changes for L1PP and L1OP ( Weighting Matrix ; …. ) to be
included in their Post-KP-2 Versions
- F ) Complementary geo-location corrections matrix
- G ) Final assessment of foreign source corrections ( Sun, glint, Moon ) and
implementation in L1OP
- H ) Check due closure of IOCP Actions defined since KP-0 ( December-2009 ).
