Sensitometric data for earth resources film

Sensitometry is applied to all photographic earth resources mission film processing. The exposure is made using an intensity modulated sensitometer with a 2850 K source filtered to produce a 5500 K spectral distribution. In addition, any filters used on the sensor are included in the sensitometer filter pack in order to accurately simulate the exposure conditions. The modulator consists of a continuous carbon wedge and a 20-step carbon step tablet.
