Abstract
The Aerospace Guidance and Metrology Center at Newark Air Force Station has the highest echelon of traceable calibration standards for the U S Air Force, including the laser and infrared measurement areas. The number of sophisticated electro-optical systems in the Air Force is growing rapidly, requiring a standards lab with both traceable standards and versatile measurement apparatus. The laboratory calibration facilities and typical measurements are described, with emphasis on the infrared. Of special interest are unique constraints imposed by the system under calibration.
