camspec-air > Camera aboard an aircraft capturing thermal and multispectral imageryInstrument Type(s) > Baseline • Guest

This instrument class represents the imagery data taken from a multispectral imager installed on the ventral side of an aircraft platform. These imagers capture five narrow spectral bands (sometimes thermal information as well) of the surface environment and are synchronized with a downwelling light sensor and GPS to generate orthographic maps of plant health indexes, such as normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and RGB images.
