The objective of this working group is to examine the various approaches used for pre- and post-launch calibration of different ocean-colour sensors. The group plans to release recommendations for calibration of the sensors based on requirements and available calibration techniques. Accurate calibration of ocean-colour sensors is essential to ensure high quality ocean-colour data.
