Data-handling considerations for advanced high-resolution multispectral scanners
1977
Several scanner design parameters that greatly affect data rates were varied to determine overall effect on data rates. Bit rates were calculated for scanners with 10-, 15-, 20-, and 30-meter instantaneous fields of view; with 5, 7, and 10 channels; and with swath widths of 46.3, 92.6, 138.9, and 185.2 kilometers (25, 50, 75, and 100 nautical miles). The data were analyzed to determine whether they could be (1) recorded onboard the spacecraft with currently available equipment, (2) recorded onboard with the equipment proposed for the 1980-90 period, (3) transmitted to earth with current or proposed equipment; and (4) compressed and decompressed without significant degradation of classification accuracy. The effect of classifying 10-meter scanner data on the existing and the development pattern-recognition systems was examined.
