Summary ​

NAOMI_SPOT7 (New AstroSat Optical Modular Instrument) is a retired multispectral instrument operated by Azercosmos on SPOT-7 (Azersky). It is associated with a satellite platform and has private data availability.

NOTE

SPOT-7 was transferred to Azercosmos in December 2014 and operated as Azersky. Communication ceased on 2023-03-17 and could not be restored. The five bands were acquired simultaneously and co-registered. Native nadir GSD was 2 m for panchromatic and 8 m for multispectral data, while standard products were delivered at 1.5 m and 6 m. No tabular authoritative SRF samples were publicly available.
