    • S-MODE Level 1 MASS DoppVis Imagery Version 1

    Metadata Updated: July 3, 2025

    This dataset contains airborne DoppVis imagery from the Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) during the IOP1 campaign conducted approximately 300 km offshore of San Francisco in Fall 2022. S-MODE aims to understand how ocean dynamics acting on short spatial scales influence the vertical exchange of physical and biological variables in the ocean. The Modular Aerial Sensing System (MASS) is an airborne instrument package that is mounted on the DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft which flies long duration detailed surveys of the field ___domain during deployments. MASS includes a Nikon D850 camera with a 14mm lens mounted with a 90 degree rotation and a 30 degree positive pitch angle during flight. The camera was synchronized to a coupled GPS/IMU system with images taken at 2hz. Raw images were calibrated for lens distortion and boresight misalignment with the GPS/IMU. Images were georeferenced to the processed aircraft trajectory and exported with reference to WGS84 datum with a UTM zone 10 projection (EPSG 32610) at 50cm resolution. Level 1 DoppVis images are available as GZIP flightlines containing individual TIFF images.
