INTRODUCTION

Identification

GETCALTYPE will return the calibration method historically used for a given AVHRR scene.

System Overview

The user is often unsure of the most appropriate calibration technique to be applied to an AVHRR scene (contingent upon which NOAA satellite and the date of acquisition). This routine may be called prior to calling AVHRRCAL (AVHRR calibration) to determine the calibration technique historically employed. It may also be used to determine the most probable calibration type that was used for an existing calibrated scene or composite.

Document Overview

The purpose of this document is to record the requirements that have been established for GETCALTYPE.
