Abstract :
The thermal infrared bands of HY-1/COCTS are calibrated by using Qinhai lake. The steps and results of calibration are described in this paper. The analyses about the uncertainty of the calibration show that the uncertainty of the calibration coefficients is acceptable and the calibration method used in this paper is reasonable
