Prelaunch Calibration

Prelaunch Calibration is a satellite data calibration procedure conducted prior to sensor deployment, in which the radiometric response characteristics of the instrument are measured under controlled laboratory conditions to establish reference baselines for subsequent on-orbit data correction.
