Abstract

Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) is a multi-spectral imaging radiometer to be launched on NASA's Earth Observing System AM-1 (EOS AM-1) platform in 1998. ASTER has 3 spectral bands in the VNIR, 6 bands in the SWIR, and 5 bands in the TIR regions with 15, 30, and 90 m ground resolution respectively. The primary science objective of the ASTER mission is to improve understanding of the local- and regional-scale processes occurring on or near the Earth's surface and lower atmosphere, including surface-atmosphere interactions.
