ORNL DAAC Project Keyword Request for PRISM
Posted: Sun Jul 27, 2025 6:06 pm America/New_York
Hello,
The ORNL DAAC has a GCMD Project Keyword Request for the following.
Type: Project
Short name: PRISM
Long name: Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer
Description: The Portable Remote Imaging Spectrometer (PRISM) was developed at Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and is a compact, lightweight, airborne push-broom spectrometer compatible with a wide range of piloted and Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platforms. PRISM operates between the spectral range of 350 nm and 1050 nm at short-wave infrared (SWIR) and a co-aligned two-channel spot radiometer at short-wave infrared (SWIR) band (1240 nm and 1640 nm) in order to provide accurate atmospheric correction of ocean color measurements. PRISM was designed to help provide the necessary spectral, spatial, and temporal resolution needed to characterize events across coastal zones. 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.

Note:
There is a current GCMD Project keyword for PRISM, with an alternate label; Pleistocene, Research, Interpretation, and Synoptic Mapping Project
Thank you,
Michele
