sensor characteristics from prelaunch evaluation

GLIcharaguide_jp20030314.pdf (if you cannot read it, please try this.)

Sorry, this document is only in Japanese now.
We will translate to English future.
It is edited by the GLI-JAXA calibration groups (1-6 groups) and the GLI-PI calibration working group.
It includes describes GLI pre-launch-tests summaries, their analysis results and useful tables for Level-1 data users.
Post launch results will be released after GLI calibration activities.
It is include following information for Level-1 data use.
 * table of GLI band performance summary (see Table 3.2-2 in P12)
 * relative spectral response of all GLI bands (see Appendix 1)

 * GLI band weighted irradiance (see 4.3.2 in P31)
 * tables of MTIR radiance and brightness temperature conversion (see Appendix 2)
