    • FIELD EXP EARTH PARABOLA CALIBRATED RDR SPECTRUM V1.0

    Metadata Updated: December 7, 2023

    PARABOLA data were obtained at three GRSFE modeling sites in the Lunar Crater Volcanic Field. The playa site, the cobble site, and the mantled flow site. Each site was imaged by PARABOLA at a variety of solar incidence angles to characterize the scattering properties of the surface completely. This information can be used as a reference to correct airborne data from ASAS and AVIRIS from any lighting and viewing geometry, or as a base data set to test radiative transfer models. Six sets of data from the playa site were gathered primarily on July 17, 1989 with solar incidence angles that varied from 28 to 71 degrees. Five sets of cobble site data were gathered during the morning of July 18, 1989 with incidence angles from 19 to 57 degrees. Data from the mantled flow site was obtained six times during the afternoon of July 18 with incidence angles from 21 to 73 degrees. In all, over 1000 data points exist for each site to characterize its scattering properties. Additionally, an equal number of points exist for the sky above the sites.
