Band Configurations for the CHRIS Instrument
The CHRIS instrument is programmable, so that a variety of band selections are possible. For this mission we have kept the number of different configurations small. The principal configurations, based on a pre-launch wavelength calibration, are set out below in tables. Graphs are also provided, showing the locations of the bands compared to a typical spectrum of green vegetation, and to the spectrum of atmospheric absorption.
Full spatial resolution, full swath, 18 bands for land/aerosols (Mode 3) (table, picture)
Full spatial resolution, full swath, 18 bands for water studies (Mode 2) (table, picture)
Half spatial resolution, (36m nominal), full swath, 62 bands (Mode 1)(table, picture)
At a small number of sites the following bandsets
are deployed:
Full spatial resolution, half swath, 37 bands (Mode 5) (table, picture)
Full spatial resolution, full swath, "chlorophyll bandset" (Mode 4) (table, picture)
