This paper describes PRISMA mission and focuses on the natural targets based calibration methods used to assess the instrument sensitivity. Two methods are used: - PICS (Pseudo Invariant Calibration Sites) allow to cross-calibrate PRISMA with SENTINEL-2 and 3 ESA missions. - Gobabeb and La Crau Instrumented sites known as RadCalNet sites which provide a BOA spectral BRDF through a dedicated acquisition protocol and processing as well as atmospheric parameters simultaneously to the satellite pass. The adaptation of these methods to hyperspectral sensors calibration is presented. The calibrations results which show the very good temporal stability of PRISMA instrument are discussed as well as the methods and in situ instrumentation evolutions planned to improve the calibration of hyperspectral sensors using natural targets. |
