We actually didn't get to that part of the payload calibration campaign unfortunately, but all indications pointed towards getting geolocation between 5-10 meters on this first mission, driven primarily by star tracker quaternion error. Ephemeris and field angle map error was right in spec, so we were prepped to do an iterative line of sight pointing calibration but with the CMGs down, we didn't get to get there.
Future systems we've got a few updates though based on learnings, and we'll be shooting for closer to 3-5 meter geolocation error without ground control points (GCPs)
