CAMBOT
Continuous Airborne Mapping By Optical Translator

The Continuous Airborne Mapping By Optical Translator (CAMBOT) is an airborne digital camera system. CAMBOT is a three-channel digital camera that collects visible imagery to support data analysis from the Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM). It has a spatial resolution of about 9 cm at a nominal flight altitude of 1,500 ft above ground level. It acquires raw images at an acquisition rate of 2 Hz.
