ORNL DAAC GCMD Keyword Update Request

[ORNL-EDL - mthornton]

Hi,

The ORNL DAAC would like to request an Instrument Update for PRISM.

Instrument Abbreviation: PRISM
Instrument Full Name: Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer
Hierarchical Path: Instruments > Earth Remote Sensing Instruments > Passive Remote Sensing > Spectrometers/Radiometers > Imaging Spectrometers/Radiometers > PRISM

Description: The Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer (PRISM) instrument is comprised of a pushbroom imaging spectrometer covering the near UV to near IR range (350-1050 nm) and a separate spot radiometer covering two short wave infrared (SWIR) bands at 1240 and 1610 nm respectively. The two-channel spot radiometer is in co-alignment with the spectrometer in order to provide accurate atmospheric correction of the ocean color measurements. The development of the PRISM instrument was supported by NASA Earth Science Division’s the Ocean Biology and Biogeochemistry, Earth Science Technology, and Airborne Sciences programs within NASA’s Earth Science Division. It is compatible with a wide range of piloted and Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platforms. PRISM applications are meant to provide the necessary spectral, spatial and temporal resolution to characterize the coastal zone.
