The OLP Version 7 validation status per AOT submode is given in Table 9.1. The table also provides an overview of the next steps to further upgrade both validated and non-validated modes and for which OLP version improvements can be expected.
It should be noted that in the case of AOT PHT22 raster maps are only partly scientifically validated. It has been demonstrated that mini-maps give reliable results for faint source photometry. Most of the photometric accuracy numbers presented for faint source measurements of C100 and C200 are based on mini-map photometry. However, in order to validate PHT22 raster maps in general, the following items must be verified before:
These checks are less related to calibration upgrades but more to the establishment of a sufficiently large test data set and inspection of the observations case by case.

In Table 9.2 we list the validated modes per detector sub-system. For completeness we have added the polarisation modes which can only be evaluated interactively using PIA and special FORTRAN routines.

The terms absolute accuracy, relative accuracy and reproducibility have been defined in the following context:
In summary, the following calibration accuracies have been achieved per
detector:
The relative reproducibility accuracy is 5% for bright sources and
10% for faint sources.
The relative reproducibility accuracy is 2% for bright sources and
12% for faint sources.
The relative reproducibility accuracy is 7% for bright sources and
7% for faint sources. Under extreme Space Weather conditions and for
the very end of the science window the achieved accuracy for faint sources
is poorer.
The relative reproducibility accuracy is 3% for bright sources and
20% for faint sources.
The relative reproducibility accuracy is around 10% both for bright and
faint sources.
