Mineralogic information from a new airborne thermal infrared multispectral scanner.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new six-channel aircraft multispectral scanner has been developed to exploit mineral signature information at wavelengths between 8 and 12 micrometers. Preliminary results show that igneous rock units can be identified from their free silica content, and that carbonate as well as clay-bearing units are readily separable on the digitally processed images.

Integration of Absorption Feature Information from Visible to Longwave Infrared Spectral Ranges for Mineral Mapping
Merging hyperspectral data from optical and thermal ranges allows a wider variety of minerals to be mapped and thus allows lithology to be mapped in a more complex way. In contrast, in most of the studies that have taken advantage of the data from the visible (VIS), near-infrared (NIR), shortwave infrared (SWIR) and longwave infrared (LWIR) spectral ranges, these different spectral ranges were ...
متن کاملSurface emittance, temperature, and thermal inertia derived from Thermal Infrared Multispectral Scanner (TIMS) data for Death Valley, California
The NASA airborne Thermal Infrared Multispectral Scanner (TIMS) was flown over Death Valley, California on both a daytime flight and a nighttime flight within a two-day period in July 1983. This Daedulus scanner has six channels in the thermal infrared, between 8 and 12 pm. Calibrated digital spectral radiance data from these flights, along with Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) reflectance data, pe...
متن کاملEjecta distribution patterns at Meteor Crater, Arizona: On the applicability of lithologic end-member deconvolution for spaceborne thermal infrared data of Earth and Mars
[1] A spectral deconvolution using a constrained least squares approach was applied to airborne thermal infrared multispectral scanner (TIMS) data of Meteor Crater, Arizona. The three principal sedimentary units sampled by the impact were chosen as endmembers, and their spectra were derived from the emissivity images. To validate previous estimates of the erosion of the near-rim ejecta, the mod...
متن کاملCapability for Data Fusion by Airborne Sensing
The recent advances of GPS/IMU have made it possible to perform the multisensor, multi-resolution and multi-spectral data fusion utilizing GIS technique. In the present study we utilized the Airborne Digital Sensor (ADS40) image and Digital Surface Model (DSM) by pixel matching techniques and studied the data fusion capability with LIDAR data from Airborne Laser Scanner (ALS40) and filtered Dig...
متن کاملFirst Airborne Thermal Infrared Hyperspectral Imaging of a Dry Lake: Real- World Data and Tes/themis Mars Interpretations
Researchers seek to identify dry lake bed deposits on Mars, if present. The Global Surveyor TES and Mars Odyssey THEMIS are primary tools in this search. However, there are no published thermal infrared spectrometer (hyperspectral) airborne studies of a dry lake bed. Here we present the first such study and the impacts on TES/THEMIS interpretations. This research addresses a looming gap in the ...
