摘要：The launch of Cartosat-1 is the beginning of yet another series of satellite mission after IRS satellites for earth observation and natural resource management applications. The first in its series of satellite for Cartographic applications, Cartosat-1 was launched on 5th May 2005. The along-track stereo viewing capability was realized by employing two cameras viz. FORE with mounting pitch angle of 26deg and AFT with that of –5deg with respect to nadir. The camera-mounting angle combined with the agility of camera in Roll, Pitch and Yaw direction to achieve better revisit created blend of viewing geometries. The Chharodi test site with its known dimension and artificial targets with controlled time-invariant radiometric properties were used to evaluate sensor specific parameters under these viewing geometries. Modulation Transfer Function, Square Wave Response, Point Spread Function and adjacency effect parameters were evaluated for FORE and AFT cameras. Along and across track spatial resolution were evaluated using Ground measured length, width and orientation of each side of test site using GPS in DGPS mode
