The Ball Experimental Sea Surface Temperature Radiometer (BESST) is an instrument that collects accurate infrared measurements of the sea surface temperature (SST). An important key feature of this instrument includes the achievement of in situ calibration through two built-in black bodies (BBs). BESST was designed so that the 2D microbolometer array produces infrared images that increment while the aircraft continues to travel. This method results in well-calibrated strip of sea surface temperature. This instrument was designed to be carried on medium sized UAVs.
