T1 - Radiator standards for accurate IR calibrations in remote sensing based on heatpipe blackbodies T2 - Proceedings Volume 3821, Environmental Sensing and Applications N2 - The demand of instrumentation in the field of remote sensing is increasing rapidly. For international compatibility, for reliable results and precise long-term investigation, necessary for example in the measurement of climatic trends, accurate traceability of the results to international standards or SI-units is mandatory. Additionally, interpretation of the results strongly requires a careful evaluation of the involved errors and the resulting uncertainties in order to allow for a rating of the obtained results. For that purpose quality assurance was introduced, not only for industrial fabrication, but also, and with increasing tendency, for industrial and scientific research. As an overview, the necessity and the possibilities of quality assurance in the area of remote sensing are discussed. Taking remote sensing of temperature as an example, the general approach is described. For that purpose, a description of heatpipe blackbodies … Y1 - 1999 UR - https://opus4.kobv.de/opus4-fhws/frontdoor/index/index/docId/1847 UR - https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/3821/0000/Radiator-standards-for-accurate-IR-calibrations-in-remote-sensing-based/10.1117/12.364203.short IS - 3821 SP - 395 EP - 403 PB - International Society for Optics and Photonics - Proceedings of SPIE ER -
