Summary ​

ALTUMPT_MICASENSE (Altum-PT) is an active multispectral instrument operated by MicaSense on UAV. It is associated with a uav platform and has private data availability.

NOTE

Imaging extension values describe the multispectral imagers. The panchromatic imager has a 46 degree HFOV, 35 degree VFOV, and 16.3 mm focal length, while the thermal imager has a 48 degree HFOV, 39 degree VFOV, and 4.5 mm focal length. Band GSD values are specified at 120 m above ground level.
