The fabrication of airborne instruments is contributing to the development of multispectral linear array technology at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. The linear array pushbroom radiometer (LAPR-I), was built to demonstrate capabilities for acquiring digital image data using linear arrays. The LAPR-I employed three arrays of 512 silicon photodiodes each to simultaneously acquire three channels of data for spectral bands within the visible and near-infrared portions of the spectrum. A second instrument, LAPR-II, uses four arrays each consisting of 512 silicon detectors. A filter wheel containing six spectral filters is used in conjunction with each array to allow filter changes in flight. This capability will facilitate studies into the utility of various bands within the visible and near infrared portions of the spectrum. The LAPR-II's aircraft mounting will allow off-nadir pointing (plus-or-minus 50 deg fore-and-aft and side-to-side) which will enable investigations of the radiometric and geometric effects of off-nadir viewing. A short wave infrared radiometer is also described.
