The formulation is rigorous and includes all misalignment angles of the VISSR, the sun sensor and the instantaneous spin axis with the satellite's body axis. It also includes the effects due to the motion of the satellite's suborbital point. All the mapping equations for distortion removal were reduced to simplest forms, and all the algorithms were optimized as much as possible. An approach was then formulated for implementing these algorithms for in-line operational use. It is concluded that in-line distortion removal is possible in real-time processing of infra-red but not visible VISSR imagery data.
