Summary ​

REDEDGEMX_RX02_gte_MICASENSE (RedEdge-MX RX02 (or greater) Series) is a legacy multispectral instrument operated by MicaSense on UAV. It is associated with a uav platform and has private data availability.

NOTE

This configuration applies to RedEdge-MX cameras with serial numbers beginning with RX02 or higher. The start date uses the month of the guide revision that documented this spectral configuration because its exact production date is not specified. Imaging extension values describe the multispectral imagers, with GSD specified at 120 m above ground level. MicaSense identifies RedEdge-MX as no longer in production but does not provide an exact retirement date.
