Description
This dataset contains geocorrected image overlays derived from Level 1 radiance imagery from the Hyperspectral Thermal Emission Spectrometer (HyTES) instrument. These composite RGB overlays were derived from radiance bands 150 (10.1 microns), 100 (9.2 microns), and 58 (8.5 microns) and are provided in compressed Keyhole Markup Language (KMZ) format. This is the NASA Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) facility instrument archive of these data. The NASA HyTES is an airborne imaging spectrometer with 256 spectral channels between 7.5 and 12 micrometers in the thermal infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum and 512 pixels cross-track. HyTES has been deployed on NASA's Twin Otter, Earth Resources ER-2, and GulfStream V aircraft and completed its first flights in July 2012. HyTES was designed to provide high spectral and spatial resolution thermal infrared (TIR) data as a precursor for NASA's planned Hyperspectral Infrared Imager (HyspIRI) orbital mission. It is useful for a number of applications, including high-resolution surface temperature and emissivity measurements, point sources of air pollution, and volcano observations. The overlays are provided in compressed Keyhole Markup Language (KMZ) format.
