Analysis of Absorption Trough Features Using Clementine Uvvis+nir Imagery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction: This contribution explores the mapping of spectral parameters of lunar features using the Clementine UVVIS+NIR data set covering the wavelength range between 415 and 2000 nm [1]. The extracted spectral features are the minimum and depth of the principal absorption trough near 1000 nm and the corresponding values of secondary absorption features present at higher wavelengths, as well as the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the principal absorption trough. Based on the derived spectral feature maps we provide a brief discussion of the mineralogical components present in the soils around the craters Aristarchus and Dionysius.

Estimation of Lunar Elemental Abundances Using Clementine UVVIS+NIR Data
Many attempts have been made to derive elemental abundances of the lunar surface from multispectral images. A method to predict Fe abundance based on Clementine UVVIS data is presented in [1]. A refined method which also addresses the TiO2 abundance is provided in [2], demonstrating that in spite of issues posed by soil maturity, grain size, mineral content, topographic shading, and glass conte...
متن کاملVerification of Quality and Compatibility for the Newly Calibrated Clementine Nir Data Set
Introduction: In February 1994, the Clementine spacecraft began orbiting the Moon with a suite of instrumentation that generated millions of images of the lunar surface. This instrumentation package included an ultraviolet-visible (UVVIS) imager that collected 5 spectral wavelengths (0.415, 0.75, 0.90, 0.95, and 1.00 μm) and a near-infrared (NIR) imager that collected 6 spectral wavelengths (1....
متن کاملA radiometric calibration for the Clementine HIRES camera
[1] We have successfully characterized the Clementine HIRES multispectral sensor entirely from inflight measurements. Relative calibration is obtained through dark subtraction (additive) and sensor spatial nonuniformity (multiplicative) on a pixel-by-pixel basis. Relative residuals from frame-to-frame are typically less than 1%. Absolute coefficients are obtained through comparisons with calibr...
متن کاملNew Method of Photometric Correction for Lunar Uvvis Images
Introduction: An accurate phase function is necessary for precise photometric correction of the Clementine lunar UVVIS images. Although several researchers have proposed photometric models for Clementine UVVIS images using empirical phase functions (e.g., [1] [2] [3]), additional work is required for correction of the data at small phase angle (<20), because the phase function at small phase an...
