The MODIS Airborne Simulator (MAS) records information in 50
multispectral bands at 16-bit resolution. Offered below is the nominal or
target spectral band configuration for the instrument. Subtle differences
in the MAS spectral calibration are reflected on each field experiment's
web page. The MAS spectral data for Alaska-April95, ARMCAS, SCAR-B and
SUCCESS is different than the current band set. In June 1996 MAS added a
blue channel and shifted the mid-wave infrared. Earlier missions, (prior
to 1995), had unique spectral band configurations which are offered on
their respective Field
Experiment Data pages.
