Description: The HIRIS is designed to acquire images in 196 spectral bands simultaneously in the 0.4-2.5 micron wavelength region. HIRIS is a targeting rather than a continuous acquisition instrument and obtains high spatial and spectral resolution images in a 23 km swath with a 30 m GIFOV in vertical viewing. Gimbal pointing is proposed which will allow image acquisition at -30 + 60 deg down-track and + or - 25 deg cross-track. The raw data rate of the instrument is 393 Mbs. The high spectral resolution will make it possible to directly identify surficial materials such as rocks, soils, and suspended matter in water, and HIRIS opens up the possibility of studying biogeochemical processes in vegetation canopies. HIRIS will be used in conjunction with MODIS as a multistage sampling system.
