This hyperspectral dataset was generated by the SAMSON sensor. It covers the spectral range of 400nm-900nm with a band width of 3.2nm. The data was collected by the Florida Environmental Research Institute as part of the GOES-R sponsored experiment.

The instrument flown during the collect is the SAMSON, a push -broom, visible to near IR, hyperspectral sensor. This sensor was designed and developed by FERI. The following paper describes the basic design of the sensor: Kohler et al. (2006)

This dataset utilized the new radiometric calibration technique specifically designed to characterize and correct the stray light found within the sensor. The following paper describes the approach: Kohler et al. (2004)

The sensor was coupled with the Applanix - GPS/INS system and a Gimbel mount, to gather the sensor attitude and positional information.

This dataset has been atmospherically corrected using TAFKAA, a hyperspectral atmospheric correction algorithm that is a heavily modified version of ATREM which was developed by NRL, with this parameter set.
