Intercalibration

Intercalibration is the process of cross comparing one satellite with another dataset used as a reference. Often the reference dataset is another satellite whose calibration is better characterised and/or updated relative to the satellite of interest and so can be used to recalibrate and/or provide information on problems/biases in the satellite of interest.
