CEOS Instrument: Advanced Meteorological Imager
Instrument: | Advanced MI |
Agencies: | KARI [Primary] |
  | KMA |
Mission: | GeoKOMPSAT-2A |
Status: | Proposed |
Type: | Multi-purpose imaging Vis/IR radiometer |
Description: | Continuous monitoring capability for the near-realtime generation of high-resolution meteorological products and long-term change analysis of sea surface temperature and cloud coverage. |
Spatial Resolution: | VIS: 0.5km, 1 km, IR: 2 km |
Swath Width: | Full Earth disk |
Wavebands: | 1: VIS, 0.55 - 0.80 ?m; 2: SWIR: 3.50 - 4.00 ?m; 3: WV (Waver Vapor): 6.50 - 7.00 ?m; 4: TIR1 (Thermal Infrared 1): 10.3 - 11.3 ?m, 5: TIR2 (Thermal Infrared 2): 11.5 - 12.5 ?m |
Technology: | Multi-purpose imaging Vis/IR radiometer |
Description: | Instrument designed to address more objectives by appropriate blending of the characteristics of spectral coverage and resolution, spatial resolution, radiometric accuracy, etc.. Spectral coverage in bands of Vis, NIR, SWIR, MWIR and TIR (0.4-15 µm). Number of channels from a few to a few tens, separated by dichroics and filters. Channel bandwidths around 10 %. Spatial resolution typically 30m-3 km. Applicable in LEO and GEO. |
