Sounder Spectral Response
Functions
Sets of spectral response functions
(SRFs) are being made available for the each of the
sounders on GOES-8 through GOES-13.
These sets were provided by ITT, the instruments' manufacturer.
The contents of the first
set, "currently operational," are the
SRFs that have been used over the lifetimes of sounders
for operational production of data products at NESDIS.
The second
set, "updated," were provided by ITT more recently and are believed
to represent more accurately the true SRFs of the instruments.
Currently, NESDIS does not plan to switch to the updated SRFs
in its processing, because we believe that the inconvenience
and
magnitude of the effort to do so outweighs the expected benefit
of the small improvements that might be realized in product
performance.
Nonetheless, the new SRFs are being made available here to the
user community.
