The paper describes COSMO-SkyMed di Seconda Generazione image quality and end-To-end calibration approach that will be used during the commissioning and operational phases. Calibration and Validation (CALVAL) System Tool overview will be provided, describing its context diagram and subsystems (SECF-System Engineering Calibration Facility and Calibration scenarios). CSG calibration activities will be reported, explaining pointing, radiometric and geolocation calibration workflows. © VDE VERLAG GMBH · Berlin · Offenbach.CSG image quality and calibration approachconference paperhttps://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85000919225&partnerID=40&md5=34c3b249839295a59e5caa0067cf4f4b
