MASTER: Airborne Science, Western US, September 2004

This dataset includes Level 1B (L1B) data products from the MODIS/ASTER Airborne Simulator (MASTER) instrument. The spectral data were collected during 11 flights aboard a Cessna Caravan aircraft over California, Oregon, Washington, and Colorado, U.S., from 2004-09-15 to 2004-10-14. A focus of this deployment involved mapping volcanic landforms. 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 each flight, and browse images derived from each L1B data file.
