Abstract
The Airborne Multi-Spectral Scanner (AMSS) is an airborne scanning spectrometer which provides spectral information similar to that which will be provided by the Global Imager (GLI) scheduled to be launched on the ADEOS-II platform in 2000. The AMSS acquires high spatial resolution imagery in the range of 0.40 to 12.45 microns, and a cross track scan width of +/- 35 degrees. This paper introduce the outline of AMSS and the result of image quality check using Integrating Sphere and Black body. As a result, it was confirmed that the data of visible and near-infrared region has yet meet to the specifications and insufficient for scientific use.
