LUNAR-IRRADIANCE

Lunar spectral irradiance measurement and modelling for absoloute calibration of EO optical sensors

This project focuses on the precise measurement and modelling of lunar spectral irradiance to enable the absolute radiometric calibration of Earth-observation optical sensors. By combining advanced lunar radiometry, improved irradiance models, and dedicated calibration strategies, the project enhances the accuracy, stability, and long-term traceability of satellite sensor calibration for Earth-observation missions.
