DESIS  

DEFINITION

  • Full name: DLR Earth Sensing Imaging Spectrometer Purpose: Land observation and detailed vegetation classification Short description: VNIR spectrometer. 240 channels in the spectral range 450-915 nm. Further details not yet available Background: Consolidated technology Resolution: 90 m at s.s.p. Primary mission objectives: Biomass Fraction of Absorbed PAR (FAPAR) Fraction of vegetated land Leaf Area Index (LAI) Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) Vegetation type Secondary mission objectives: Aerosol Optical Depth Aerosol column burden Earth surface albedo Integrated Water Vapour (IWV) Land cover Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) Soil moisture at surface Soil type Opportunity objectives: Aerosol effective radius Aerosol mass mixing ratio Aerosol type Aerosol volcanic ash Aerosol volcanic ash Total Column Cloud cover Cloud optical depth Cloud top height Cloud type Downward short-wave irradiance at Earth surface Glacier cover Glacier topography Land surface topography Oil spill cover Sea-ice cover Short-wave cloud reflectance Snow cover Specific humidity Upward short-wave irradiance at TOA https://www.wmo-sat.info/oscar/instruments/view/1082
