VIIRS #Centerl(nm)Dl(nm)SNR/NEDT*
Phase 1: Implement VIIRS Bands on the NASA MAS System
Design and build a VIIRS-like Spectrometer, compatible with the exisiting MAS Opto-Mechanical Module (OMM) and data system and begin collecting data.
Phase 2: Build a dedicated VIIRS Airborne Simulator Instrument
(based on an improved MAS design)
Design and build:
-- Dedicated Opto-Mechanical Module (with new-design
blackbodies)
-- New data system (MAS follow-on design)
Phase 3: Advanced technology system
-- Design and build next-generation airborne line-scanner
-- Re-use high-value elements (e.g. filters, detector arrays)
-- Long-term solution for VIIRS airborne simulation
-- UAV-Compatible
& Calibrators 18 Months
