AVIRIS-3 L1B Calibrated Radiance, Facility Instrument Collection
This dataset contains Level 1B (L1B) calibrated radiance images as well as observational geometry and illumination parameters from the Airborne Visible / Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-3 (AVIRIS-3) instrument. This is the NASA Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) facility instrument archive of these data. The NASA AVIRIS-3 is a spectral mapping system that measures reflected radiance at 7.4-nm intervals in the Visible to Shortwave Infrared (VSWIR) spectral range from 390-2500 nm. The AVIRIS-3 sensor has a 40 degree instantaneous field of view with 1234 pixels, providing altitude dependent ground sampling distances from 12 m to sub meter range. This spectrometer measures radiance from surface and atmosphere and is extremely similar in design to the orbital Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation (EMIT) spectrometer. AVIRIS-3 has been designed to fly on a variety of aircraft platforms including the King Air B-200, Gulfstream III, Gulfstream V, and ER-2. For each flight line, two file types are included: calibrated radiance (RDN) and orthocorrected observation geometry and illumination (ORT) in netCDF format. Both file types include a geolocation lookup table (GLT) for georeferencing pixels in UTM and geographic coordinates. A band mask file indicates whether wavelengths were interpolated on a per pixel basis. In addition, ancillary files for each flight line are provided, including a quick look image in JPEG format and text files in YAML format that document processing algorithms and parameters used during production.
