  1. Remote SensingSPOT and Other Moderate Resolution Satellite Systems

  2. SPOT Le Systeme Pour l'Observation de la Terre (Earth Observation System) SPOT 1, 2, 4 http://www.crisp.nus.edu.sg/~research/tutorial/spacebrn.htm

  3. 1. SPOT 1,2,3 • A French satellite system - SPOT-1 was launched in Feb 21, 1986 - SPOT-2 in 1990 - SPOT-3 in 1993 • The first commercial system designed to provide high quality service and data for operational users worldwide

  4. 2. Orbits • Altitude 832km • Inclination 98.70 • 10:30am passes descending point • 26 days for vertical observation, 1-4 days for oblique observations

  5. 3. SPOT Sensor Systems • Components      - two identical High Resolution Visible (HRV) imaging systems – pushbroom         - a telemetry transmitter, and magnetic tape recorders

  6. 3. The Pushbroom Technique • “Pushbroom" scans based on charge coupled devices (CCD) which allows imaging the entire data line along track • A linear array of CCDs each corresponding to a pixel •  Pushbroom allows longer lifetime, reduced geometric errors, and longer dwell time

  7. 3. Pushbroom .. • A 6,000-detector subarray for the panband • Three 3,000-detector subarrays for the three multispectral bands respectively • The pointable mirror is controlled by the ground station to acquire oblique images A: Linear Array of DetectorsB: Focal Plane of ImageC: LenseD: Ground Resolution Cell http://hosting.soonet.ca/eliris/remotesensing/bl130lec11.html

  8. 4. SPOT Resolutions • Panchromatic mode • Multispectral mode

  9. 4. Resolutions - Pan • Panchromatic mode  - spectral resolution: 0.51-0.73microm  - radiometric resolution: 256 level of brightness  - spatial resolution: 10x10m  - temporal resolution: 2.5-26 days

  10. 4. Resolutions - XS • Multispectral configuration  - spectral resolution:  band1: 0.50-0.59mm (green) band2: 0.61-0.68mm (red) band3: 0.79-0.89mm (near infrared)  - radiometric resolution: 256 levels  - spatial resolution: 20x20m  - temporal resolution: 2.5-26 days

  11. 5. The Nadir Viewing • The nadir viewing • The off-nadir viewing

  12. 5. The Nadir Viewing .. • The two 60km swath overlap 3km • The total swath is 117km

  13. 5. The Off-Nadir Viewing.. • Can view in a maximum 27o in 45 steps of 0.6o each • Can view an area of a maximum 950km, with each scene 60-80km http://hosting.soonet.ca/eliris/remotesensing/bl130lec11.html

  14. 5. The Off-Nadir Viewing .. • The same area can be viewed from different angles to acquire stereo coverage • The twin sensors can operate in different viewing angles http://www.crisp.nus.edu.sg/~research/tutorial/spot.htm#vegetn

  15. SPOT 1, 2, 3 • SPOT 1 was withdrawn in 1990 • SPOT 2 is deorbited in 2009 • SPOT 3 stopped in 1997

  16. 6. SPOT 4, 5, and 6 SPOT 4 SPOT 5 SPOT 6 http://www.crisp.nus.edu.sg/~research/tutorial/spot5.htm

  17. 6. SPOT 4 • Launched on Mar 23, 1998 • High Resolution Visible and Infrared (HRVIR) • An additional mid-infrared 1.58-1.75mm for vegetation, mineral, and soil moisture monitoring • Replace the pan band with a red band that produces both 10m black/white and 20m XS data • A wide IFOV Vegetation Monitoring Instrument with 1km resolution, 2250km swath, B, R, NIR, MIR bands

  18. 6. SPOT 5 • Launched on May 3, 2002 • Replace HRVIR with two high resolution geometric instruments (HRG) • A 5m pan band, 10m G, R, NIR bands, and a 20m MIR band • High resolution stereoscopic (HRS) instrument, prepares 10m global wide DEM

  19. 6. SPOT 6 • Launched on September 9, 2012 • Altitude 694 Km • A 1.5m pan band, 8mB, G, R, NIR bands • High resolution stereoscopic (HRS) instrument, prepares 10m global wide DEM

  20. 7. SPOT Data • Direct transmission occurs within 2,600km to the ground stations, otherwise tape recorders are used •  SPOT Image Co. • http://www.astrium-geo.com/en/147-spot-6-7 http://www.astrium-geo.com/na/

  21. Moderate Resolution Land Satellites • IRS (the Indian Remote Sensing) • RESURS-01 (Russia) • ADEOS (ADvanced Earth Observing Satellite, Japan) • JERS-1 (Japan)
