TL;DR: In this paper, two examples are given of the process of translating user requirements into optimization and assessment tools. But they do not address how the user requirements for calibration translate into spectral and spatial uniformity of response, and further to the complete absence of spectral distortion, as well as to the minimization of the variation of the LSF width in both directions, spatial and spectral.

TL;DR: The Terrestrial Planet Finder-Coronagraph (TPF-C) as mentioned in this paper is a NASA exploration mission to directly detect and characterize terrestrial exoplanets at visible wavelengths at a separation of 75 milli-arc-seconds (mas).

TL;DR: In this article, the cross-track, along-track and spectral response functions of a tolerance imaging spectrometer are compared to a standard set of metrics. But the authors focus on the cross track, along track and spectral responses of the system.

TL;DR: The Snow and Water Imaging Spectrometer (SWIS) as discussed by the authors is a science-grade imaging spectrometer and telescope system suitable for CubeSat applications, spanning a 350-1700 nm spectral range with 5.7 nm sampling, a 10 degree field of view and 0.3 mrad spatial resolution.

TL;DR: Green et al. as discussed by the authors presented an early assessment of the capabilities of the early imagers of the NASA Imagining SPECTROMETER, including the early evaluation of the SPECTRAL, RADIOMETRIC, SPATIAL and UNIFORMITY CHARACTERISTICS.
