This document presents an overview of Airborne Visible and Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) acquisitions in Argentina. The document initially discusses imaging spectroscopy, spectrum measurement, the AVIRIS instrument and AVIRIS performance. Additionally, AVIRIS imaging collection activities since its deployment to Argentina in January of 2001 are briefly cited.
None given. From the paper: It appears that the best possible AVIRIS calibration would be a combination of a radiative transfer correction followed by a ground calibration.
The AVIRIS onboard calibrator became operational in 1992. This subsystem on the AVIRIS sensor has operated nominally throughout the 1992 and 1993 flight season. This paper describes the data measured by the onboard calibration and the two primary uses of these data.
In this study, a Modtran-based calibration approach was used to map liquid water and atmospheric water vapor and retrieve surface reflectance from three AVIRIS scenes acquired in 1992 over the Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve. Temporal trends in endmember fractions, liquid water and atmospheric water vapor were investigated also. The combination of spectral mixture analysis and the Modtran based atmospheric/liquid water models was used to develop a unique vegetation community description.
