Description: The Shuttle Multispectral Infrared Radiometer (SMIRR) is a spectroradiometer covering the region 0.5-2.5 microns in 10 channels that acquired data from 100 m diameter spots along the subspacecraft ground track. It was flown aboard the second flight of the Space Shuttle Columbia, November 12-14, 1981. Preliminary analysis of data from one of the 17 orbits covered shows that in Egypt, carbonate rocks, kaolinite, and possibly montmorillonite can be identified by their SMIRR spectral signatures in conjunction with limited knowledge of the regional geologic setting. The SMIRR data have made possible the first remote identification of carbonate rocks and clays from orbit.
