1. A method for condition-based power plant sensor calibration, comprising:

  • receiving data from one or more power plant sensors;

    reconciling errors detected within the data from the one or more power plant sensors;

    calibrating the one or more power plant sensors based at least in part on the errors detected within the data;

    generating at least one performance model based at least in part on the reconciled data from the one or more power plant sensors, wherein the reconciling errors comprises giving more weight to the one or more power plant sensors that are known to be more reliable, based at least in part on at least one of a calibration history or trends of the one or more power plant sensors stored in a database;

    detecting anomalies within the at least one performance model; and

    tuning the at least one performance model to account for the anomalies.
