Figure 7-3 Geolocation error for Geometric DB Version 2.0
The longitude and latitude errors can be expressed by a 6th order polynomial with a good approximation.
λC = λM - Δλ
φC =φM - Δφ
where
λC : corrected longitude
λM : measured longitude
Δλ: longitude error
φC: corrected latitude
φM: measured latitude
Δφ: latitude error
Δλ(or Δφ) = a0 + a2φ2 +
a4φ4 + a6φ6

(Unit: degree)
The corrected longitude and latitude values can be obtained by subtracting the above mentioned error from the measured values.
The corrected accuracy will be better than 50 m.
This error will be corrected for the Level-1 products with a soon-to-be-updated geometric DB version.
