Summary
Abstract: Consolidated tables showing an extensive listing of the highest independently confirmed efficiencies for solar cells and modules are presented. Guidelines for inclusion of results into these tables are outlined and new entries since January 2003 are reviewed.

A distinction is made between three different eligible areas: total area; aperture area; and designated illumination area.1 "Active area" ... View entire text

Project
Quality Differences between the LANCE NRT and standard products are currently under investigation. Known, but not yet quantified, differences include
• the ephemeris files (LANCE uses predicted ephemeris and standard products use definitive ephemeris) and
• standard product generation includes more sophisticated, dynamic cross calibration and geolocation processes.

Level-3 automatic QA procedures involve simply evaluating the Level-2B quality flags to determine if observations are valid for Level-3 products.
Access Constraints You must register using the EOSDIS User Registration System in order to access LANCE NRT AMSR-E data. You can register at https://users.eosdis.nasa.gov/urs/.
