The Global Change Observation Mission (GCOM) aims to establish and demonstrate a global, long-term satellite-observing system to measure essential geophysical parameters to facilitate understanding the global water circulation and climate change, and eventually contribute to improving future climate projection through a collaborative framework with climate model institutions. GCOM consists of two polar orbiting satellite observing systems, GCOM-W (Water) and GCOM-C (Climate). The first satellite, GCOM-W with Advance Microwave Radiometer -2 (AMSR-2), was already launched in 2012 and has been observing continuously. The follower satellite, GCOM-C with Second Generation Global Imager (SGLI), will be launched in Japanese fiscal year 2017. SGLI enables a new generation of operational moderate resolution-imaging capabilities following the legacy of the GLI on ADEOS-II (Advanced Earth Observing Satellite-II) satellite. The SGLI empowers surface and atmospheric measurements related to the carbon cycle and radiation budget, with two radiometers of Visible and Near Infrared Radiometer (VNR) and Infrared Scanning Radiometer (IRS) which perform a wide-band (380nm-12 mu m) optical observation not only with as wide as 1150-1400km FOV (field of view) but also with as high as 250-500m resolution. Also, polarization and along-track slant view observation are quite characteristic of SGLI, providing the sensor data records for more than 28 standard products and 23 research products including clouds, aerosols, ocean color, vegetation, snow and ice, and other applications. Sensor instrument proto-flight tests including optical characterization tests such as radiometric and geometric were completed, and satellite system proto-flight tests have finished including thermal vacuum, vibration and acoustic test. In this paper, the pre-launch phase instrument characterization of SGLI flight model and status of GCOM-C satellite system flight model along with the overview of them will be describe

Global Change Observation Mission (GCOM) consists of two series of satellites, GCOM-W (Water) and GCOM-C (Climate) for long-term monitoring of earth environment. Second-generation Global Imager (SGLI), the onboard mission instrument of GCOM-C, is the wide FOV multi-spectral optical radiometer in the wavelength range of near-UV to thermal infrared. SGLI will provide high accuracy measurements of Ocean, Atmosphere, Land and Cryosphere. JAXA successfully launched the GCOM-C satellite on December 23, 2017, and JAXA is carrying out the in-orbit checkout and initial calibration activities. This paper describes pre-launch characterization summary of the SGLI and in-orbit calibration plan. Especially we focus on the pre-launch and in-orbit radiometric performance.

Second-generation Global Imager (SGLI) has a multi-channel in the wavelength range from near-UV to thermal infrared. SGLI consists of two sensor units, Visible and Near Infrared Radiometer (VNR) and Infrared Scanning Radiometer (IRS). We use three integrating spheres for each wavelength range in radiometric tests. The materials of inside wall of sphere are polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and barium sulfate for ultraviolet-visible to near infrared channels, and gold for shortwave infrared channels, respectively. This paper describes the Proto Flight Model (PFM) radiometric performance using these integrating spheres.

The sensor system proto-flight tests (PFTs) are on-going including optical characterization tests such as radiometric tests using an integrating sphere and geometric and MTF tests using a collimator. This paper describes development and pre-launch test status of SGLI flight model. Especially we focus on the pre-launch radiometric performances such as the spectral response characteristics and signal to noise ratio.

Electronic and optical crosstalk is one of the major challenges facing space-based Earth observing sensors, the effects of which could pose serious risks to the successful retrieval of geophysical information. There was an extensive effort during the SNPP VIIRS design and testing phase to characterize the on-orbit VisNIR crosstalk and its impact on environmental products. This paper describes an approach to assess the level of optical and electronic crosstalk on the measured radiance, and thereafter the retrieved geophysical products. During SNPP VIIRS pre-launch testing, a set of electronic and optical cross-talk influence coefficients was derived from measurements, which represent the amount of signal contamination received by each detector when other detectors on the same focal plane were illuminated. These coefficients were used to assess the potential crosstalk and its uncertainty on typical SNPP VIIRS land, atmosphere and ocean scenes. The simulation results show SNPP VIIRS crosstalk contamination is very small, less than 0.3 % for the stressing scenes, except for bands M7 and I2 over the dark ocean regions. These results are encouraging and constitute further evidence that SNPP VIIRS produces high quality imagery. The simulation approach presented in this paper could also be used for early crosstalk impact assessments for future VIIRS instruments.
