MASTER: Functional check flight, California-Nevada, May, 2003

This dataset includes Level 1B (L1B) data products from the MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator (MASTER) instrument. The spectral data were collected during a single flight aboard a Cessna Caravan aircraft over California and Nevada, U.S., on 2003-05-31. The purpose of this deployment was a functional check flight. Data products include L1B georeferenced multispectral imagery of calibrated radiance in 50 bands covering wavelengths of 0.460 to 12.879 micrometers at approximately 10-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 the flight, and browse images derived from each L1B data file.
