Variations reported in the in-flight absolute radiometric calibration of the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS) and the Thematic Mapper (TM) on Landsat 4 are reviewed. At short wavelengths these sensors exhibited a gradual reduction in response, while in the midinfrared the TM showed oscillatory variations, according to the results of TM internal calibration. The methodology and results are presented for five reflectance-based calibrations of the Landsat 5 TM at White Sands, NM, in the period July 1984 to November 1985. These show a +/-2.8% standard deviation (1 sigma) for the six solar-reflective bands. Analysis and preliminary results of a second, independent calibration method based on radiance measurements from a helicopter at White Sands indicate that this is potentially an accurate method for corroborating the results from the reflectance-based method.
