CWG Release of PFM, FM2, FM3, FM4 SRF
GOES-R Calibration Working Group (CWG)
Mar. 10, 2016
Summary:
GOES-R ABI vendor delivered ANGEN spectral response functions (SRF) for
ABI flight Module (FM): FM2, FM3, FM4 [1,2,3] on Feb.2, 2016. This set
of SRFs is provided under vendor SRF delivery, together with the PFM
SRF delivered by vendor in November 2013 [4].
Similarly to previous releases [5] CWG additionally provides SRF
processed to remove any negative response present in the original
release. The CWG processing is limited to truncating the SRF to the
innermost 0.1% of the relative spectral response [6].
For consistency the PFM SRF [6] is processed similarly to the rest of
the ABI units SRF, and a CWG PFM SRF release v3 is issued with this document.
File description:
The vendor SRF is provided as delivered and consists of the following SRFs:
PFM SRF:  ABI-11-468A_PFM_Spectral_Response_Curves.xlsx
PFM FM2:  ABI-16-045_FM2_Spectral_Response_Curves.xlsx
PFM FM3:  ABI-16-046_FM3_Spectral_Response_Curves.xlsx
PFM FM4:  ABI-16-047_FM4_Spectral_Response_Curves.xlsx
The CWG processed SRFs are released as text files with filenames:
GOES-R_ABI_UUU_SRF_CWG_chXX.txt, where UUU denotes the ABI unit
(PFM, FM2, FM3, or FM4) and XX is the channel number (1 through 16).
After two lines of header the files contain data in three columns as follow:
Column1: wavelength [μm]
Column 2: wavenumber [cm-1]
Column 3: Relative spectral response
