| Abstract |
The Compact High Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (CHRIS) is one of the instruments aboard the Project for On-Board Autonomy (Proba) (more info here) satellite. The objectives of CHRIS are the collection of BRDF (Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) data for a better understanding of spectral reflectances, and exploration of the capabilities of imaging spectrometers on agile small satellite platforms. The data provided from CHRIS is targeted to help with environmental monitoring applications. The initial bandset selection for the science mission were defined prior to launch: * bands for full swath, high resolution land/aerosols (18 bands, plus 1 band for calibration) * water bands, full swath, high resolution (18 bands, plus 1 band for calibration) * full swath, 34 m resolution bands, all sites (62 bands, plus 1 band for calibration) * half swath, high resolution bands over land (37 bands, plus 1 band for calibration) * full swath, chlorophyll band set, high resolution (18 bands, plus 1 band for calibration)
From this collection you may order products of the following types: - PROBA CHRIS Level 1A (PROBA.CHRIS.1A) |
