The Airborne Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (AirMISR) is a remote-passive, pushbroom sensor that was developed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). AirMISR provides visible and infrared imagery similar to that of the MISR instrument on the Terra satellite. It collects data with a single camera at nine viewing angles and operates across four spectral bands: 443 nm, 555 nm, 670 nm, and 865 nm. AirMISR has a swath width of around 11 km and an instantaneous field of view of 7 m x 6 m at nadir. AirMISR is typically flown on the NASA ER-2 aircraft due to its high flight altitude of 20 km.
