Intercomparisons of reflectance measurements

A comparison of spectral diffuse reflectance between different national standards laboratories is being planned under the direction of the Comite Consultatif de Photometrie et Radiometrie (CCPR). A similar comparison of bidirectional reflectance distribution factor among laboratories in the United States in support of optical remote sensing measurements is nearing completion. Since this comparison provides valuable lessons for the one organized by the CCPR, pertinent results and their implications are presented.
