VISSR Calibration and Validation

This page provides information on calibration and validation of Stretched Visible and Infrared Spin Scan Radiometer (VISSR) onboard FY-2 series satellites.

There are two generations of VISSR, VISSR-I onboard the first batch of FY-2 ( FY-2A and FY-2B ), and VISSR-II onboard the second batch of FY-2 ( FY-2C , FY-2D and FY-2E ) and onboard the third batch of FY-2 ( FY-2F , FY-2G and FY-2H ).
