摘要
包括它的定义，目的，可描绘选择，方法论，复杂性，和重要性，传感器刻度在 supportingNOAA 的卫星使命的上下文在这篇论文被检验。传感器刻度的普通理解为在传感器供应商，刻度科学家，卫星操作符，程序管理器，和遥感之中的有效通讯是必要的数据用户，谁必须合作保证一个国家在一个复杂运作的环境卫星系统的战略投资服务国家的兴趣并且在全世界提高人的生活。在 NOAA/NESDIS/ORA 的刻度活动的例子被选择进一步说明这些概念并且证明课从过去的经验学习了。
Sensor calibration, including its definition, purpose, traceability options, methodology, complexity, and importance, is examined in this paper in the context of supporting NOAA＇s satellite mission. Common understanding of sensor calibration is essential for the effective communication among sensor vendors, calibration scientists, satellite operators, program managers, and remote sensing data users, who must cooperate to ensure that a nation＇s strategic investment in a sophisticated operational environmental satellite system serves the nation＇s interest and enhances the human lives around the world. Examples of calibration activities at NOAA/NESDIS/ORA are selected to further illustrate these concepts and to demonstrate the lessons learned from the past experience.
