Hi Ludmilla,

Since I didn't make a presentation yesterday, here the comments that we discussed.

There was no official solar spectrum to convert from radiance to reflectance. A lot of users will want to make this
conversion. I know other missions and instruments have official solar models that they have chosen and it would be good to
know what that model is and if possible have it included in the calibration folder.??

The error extensions for the calibrated files are all zero. There is a note in the documentation that states they haven't been
calculated yet, but it would be good to know if there is a suggested procedure for calculating accurate errors and whether the
errors will be provided with future data releases.

As was also discussed with other datasets, it would be good to know what data is missing from this time period. More pluto
spectra? Other small satellites???

It came up in the discussion that there were several discrepancies in the documentation regarding the short end of the
wavelength. I want to call attention to the ICD, which also says 1.225 microns several times.??

Let me know if you have any questions.

Cristina
