Event	StartDate	EndDate	Description
B16 LUT update	05/10/2019	05/10/2019	The lunar rejection threshold of Band 16 was updated to reduce the potential striping caused by detector noise.
Navigation parameters update	6/1/2017	6/15/2017	RDP values are updated
Intermittent Channel 8 striping	12/31/2018	01/31/2019	repeated striping due to anomalous performance of det #208 and #107. Corrected with the BDS update of det #208 and manual space look reset of #107.
ABI Band02 is ~7% brighter than VIIRS	6/1/2017		G16 ABI Band2 (0.64um) is brighter than VIIR I1band by ~6-8%, depending on time.
B05 Striping associated with Detector #200/#201	6/1/2017	6/24/2019	Persist striping patterns are detected associated with bad performance from Dectector #200/#201
B10 D312 Striping and BDS Update	6/1/2017	10/3/2017	Striping was caused by B10 Detector #312 and was removed with the BDS update on 10/03/2017
B12 D257 Striping and BDS Update	6/1/2017	10/3/2017	Striping was caused by B12 Detector #257 and was removed with the BDS update on 10/03/2017
Cold pixels around fire	6/1/2017	4/23/2019	For the 3.9um channel (B07, and for this band only), some pixels around (usually not immediately next to) extremely hot targets such as fire have substatially cold bias. The affected pixels are properly flagged. Corrected onon 04/23/2019. Major navigation upgrade,6/1/2017,,Upgrade elements: (i) static FPA shifts are absorbed into the LUTs; (ii) GNC gyro rate capping is adjusted. Upgrade effects: (i) navigation disturbances from the Kalman filter reset are reduced several times; (ii) navigation stability is increased. Periodic IR Calibration Anomaly (PICA),6/1/2017,10/19/2017,PICA was a periodic radiometric calibration anomaly with 15 minutes of periodicity observed at GOES-16 ABI Mode-3 MESO and CONUS images caused by the residual of incident angle-dependent scan mirror emissivity corrections. It was corrected with the update of scan-mirror emissivity LUTs on 10/19/2017. Sub-optimal solar calibration for VNIR Channels,01/15/2017,12/12/2017,Until 12 December 2017
ICT Temperature Bias	6/1/2017	6/19/2018	The ICT PRT coefficients that converted the PRT raw counts into temperatures were inconsistent with the values from the correct vendor source. This discrepancy led to a -0.2 K bias to the calculated ICT temperatures and colder bias of similar magnitude of the L1b products for all the IR channels. On 19 June 2018, the revised LUT was implemented in GS data processing and resulted in improved radiometric calibration accuracy.
GOES-16 Drifted from 89.5W to 89.2W	8/8/2017	9/3/2017	GOES-16 drifted from 89.5W to 89.2W for the purpose of testing potential impacts related to shifting GOES-16 operational station keeping position from 75.0W to 85.2W.
Transient navigation anomalies	9/28/2017		Anomalies involve large and sudden East-West and/or North-South navigation swings exceeding MRD limits. The reason identified as an intermittent loss of the gyro rate information in the Ground processing. The fix extrapolates observed gyro rate onto the period of absence.
B05 Striping caused by incorrect of use of Look-up table	11/19/2017	12/29/2017	In-correct solar calibration LUT (pre-launch solar calibration coefficient) was used, resulting stronger striping at B05 during this period
Major navigation upgrade	11/20/2017	11/22/2017	Upgrade elements: (i) RDP correction for rotation and stretch; (ii) diagonal scan is implemented for 064 star detection; (iii) dynamic LMC is implemented; (iv) Kalman filter retuned. Upgrade effects: significant reduction of all MRD-specified navigation errors to well-below the specs. Deficiency: Kalman filter-induced instability remains in the navigation of thermal channels, though the magnitude is significantly reduced.
GOES-16 Drifted from 89.3W to 75.2W	11/29/2017	12/18/2017	GOES-16 station keeping relocated from the 89.3W Test location to its 75.2W operational location,and intruments re-evaluted for operational readiness.

VNIR Operational Algorithm Update	1/17/2018	2/7/2018	A new calibration algorithm was operationally implemented to reduce the VNIR striping observed since in-orbit. This implementation was accomplished with two steps: the first step was the upload of the new detector non-linearity (Q) LUT for B01/B02/B03 on 01/17/2018 and the second step was to implement the new algorith using Q-scaling on 02/07/2018. This new algorithm resulted in significant reduce in striping at B01/B02/B03 and slight change in the VNIR radiometric calibration accuracy. No change in B05 striping.
Sub-optimal solar calibration for VNIR channels	2/14/2018	2/20/2018	The three extra solar calirbation events were conducted to simulate the similar illumination condition for the solar calibration event conducted at about one year ago

Solar Intrusion	3/2/2018		Strong stray light appearing mostly in the Southern hemisphere.

However, the bias is time dependent, so only now it is permanently fixed.
Channel 8 striping	4/29/2018	4/29/2018	Channel 8 striping was discovered. Caused by detector response level shifts (observed by both SPL and ICT data) with Detector #286 (Indexing from zero). It was discovered that the space look (SPL) used to calculate the operational calibration coefficients was locked during this period
Channel 10 striping and BDS update	5/19/2018	5/22/2018	Channel 10 striping was discovered. Caused by ground processing spacelook latchup after Detector #294 (indexing from zero) response level shifts (observed by both SPL and ICT data). Corrected with a BDS change.
Channel 10 Striping	6/3/2018	6/4/2018	Channel 10 striping was discovered. Caused by ground processing spacelook latchup after Detector #156 (indexing from zero) response level shifts (observed by both SPL and ICT data). This led to a bias of affected pixels that appears as a strip in image. Corrected by resetting space look count.
Channel 9 Striping	6/4/2018	6/4/2018	Channel 9 striping was discovered. Caused by ground processing spacelook latchup after Detector #303 (indexing from zero) response level shifts (observed by both SPL and ICT data). This led to a bias of affected pixels that appears as a strip in image. Corrected by resetting space look count.
Transient navigation anomaly fixed	10/15/2018	10/15/2018	Large navigation errors in all channels lasting for about one hour with a random occurrence were associated with the gaps in the Ground gyro rate processing and fixed in the Ground software upgrade.

B10 striping	12/24/2020	12/24/2020	Striping at G16 B10 may be observed on 12/24/2020. It was caused by the space-look latch-up due to a sudden response change at det#094 at 10:43 UTC.

Frequent SPL NEdN outliers after DO.12.01 update	05/23/2023		Frequent SPL NEdN outliers were observed in certain bands on G16/G18 after the update of DO.12.01 on 05/23/2023. e.g. G16 B04/B06/B07/B09/B10/B13.

Banding and Striping Images	07/12/2020	07/12/2020	The Moon appeared in the G17 ICT spacelook positions at ~03:15z and ~03:20z.

One strong banding can also be observed at the B04 FD swath and the MESO image at ~03:15z. The strong striping at the B13 images since 03:20z was caused by the latched spacelook and was resolved by the manual reset of the spacelook at ~04:14z. Details on these anomalies are available in the report by Yu et al. in the CWG weekly meeting on 07/15/2020.

The intermittent striping was caused by the unstable detector at the detector row #213 and it was resolved by a BDS update at ~21:02 UTC on 08/18/2020. The strong striping caused an inadvertent BDS update at Row#300 at ~21:02z; and mitigated with a manual spacelook reset at ~23:55z on 08/18/2020 to trigger the band-aid remedy; and recovered with the reverted BDS update at ~18:28 UTC on 08/21/2020. Details in the reports at the CWG 08/19/2020 meeting.

Frequent SPL NEdN outliers after DO.12.01 update	05/23/2023		Frequent SPL NEdN outliers were observed in certain bands on G16/G18 after the update of DO.12.01 on 05/23/2023. e.g. G16 B04/B06/B07/B09/B10/B13. The associated SPL mean value had a small fluctuation of a few counts compared to the normal condition. No apparent striping was observed. The CWG analysis shows that it is related to the failure of sample SPL spike screening after the update of DO.12.01 on 05/23/2023. The ground is working to resolve it.
