PROGRESS FY’05 AVIRIS instrument successfully integrated on WB-57 – 48 hours arrival to take-off! AVIRIS acquired data from WB-platform (collected test data over areas affected by Hurricane Katrina) Development of in-house algorithms for remote calibration of the AVIRIS data; any field samples representing surficial exposures appreciated and will help calibration of hyperspectral data Software developed for hyperspectral processing which will be published as open- file report. Windows platform based on incorporating continuum-removal. This important for use by Afghan counterparts Definition of “Standard Product”: 1:250,000 scale maps – flight lines to be indexed as tiles to align with geologic quads (Eric Wood) Progress in determining format for meta-data for 6+ terrabytes of data and defining naming scheme for indexing and acquiring flight-data
AVIRIS DATA ACQUISITION PLANS AND CONSIDERATIONS Continue laboratory studies for use in calibration, software testing and manual preparation, rewriting data interface, calibration of AVIRIS on WB-26 Site visit by WB-57 pilots to Kandahar taking place this week- assess runway conditions and infrastructure options to help determine deployment date Deployment target date late-July. Consider overlap with P3 deployment Data acquisition now set for 30 days – with request for funding to extend another 20 days ( 30 days assumes 20 days of actual data collection and 20 days assumes 15 days acquisition, due to weather, engineering problems, personnel fatigue). We are assuming 20hrs/day of support operations Primary consideration: acquisition of AVIRIS data for Afghanistan – time required Secondary consideration: Acquisition of AVIRIS data for Pakistan - time and funding required
