The GOES-R flight project has developed the Image Navigation and Registration (INR) Performance Assessment Tool Set (IPATS) to perform independent INR evaluations of the optical instruments on the GOES-R series spacecraft. In this paper, we document the development of navigation (NAV) evaluation capabilities within IPATS for the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM). We also discuss the post-processing quality filtering developed for GLM NAV, and present example results for several GLM datasets. Initial results suggest that GOES-16 GLM is compliant with navigation requirements.
