MASTER: Airborne Science, California-Nevada, August, 2004

This dataset includes Level 1B (L1B) data products from the MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator (MASTER) instrument. The spectral data were collected during one flight aboard a DOE B-200 aircraft over California and Nevada, U.S., on 2004-08-18 to 2004-08-29. Objectives of this deployment included mapping geological faults in southern California. This deployment was coordinated by the U.S. Department of Energy's Remote Sensing Laboratory (RSL) located at Nellis Air Force Base near Las Vegas, Nevada. Data products include L1B georeferenced multispectral imagery of calibrated radiance in 50 bands covering wavelengths of 0.460 to 12.879 micrometers at approximately 20-meter spatial resolution. The L1B file format is HDF-4. In addition, the dataset includes flight paths, spectral band information, instrument configuration, ancillary notes, and summary information for each flight, and browse images derived from each L1B data file.

本数据集包含MODIS/ASTER机载模拟器（MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator, MASTER）获取的Level 1B（L1B）数据产品。光谱数据采集于2004年8月18日至2004年8月29日期间，搭载美国能源部（Department of Energy, DOE）B-200型飞机，飞行区域覆盖美国加利福尼亚州与内华达州。本次飞行部署的目标之一为绘制南加州的地质断层分布图，该部署由位于内华达州拉斯维加斯附近内利斯空军基地的美国能源部遥感实验室（Remote Sensing Laboratory, RSL）统筹协调。本数据集的数据产品包含经过辐射定标的50波段多光谱影像的L1B地理参考数据，波段覆盖波长范围为0.460至12.879微米，空间分辨率约为20米。L1B数据文件格式为HDF-4。此外，本数据集还包含各次飞行的飞行路径、光谱波段信息、仪器配置参数、辅助说明与汇总信息，以及由每份L1B数据文件衍生的浏览影像。
