Atmospheric Remote Sensing Spectrometer
Spectral remote sensing is one of the most important technologies for atmospheric measurements. For these spectrometers, the sun serves as the light source, followed by a camera-based solar tracker. The Atmospheric Processors department derives geophysical atmospheric parameters from remote sensing data. The Resonance GCSO2-3 is the latest UV-sensitive camera that compares images in two spectral bands to produce concentration maps of SO2 plumes. Measurements are made from a variety of locations, platforms, and geometries, including ground-based measurements, aircraft measurements, balloon measurements, and satellite measurements.
