Spectroradiometer for remote sensing

Using spectrometers and spectroradiometers for remote sensing allows for the collection of data that can be applied to ground truthing and correlation of hyperspectral and multi-spectral data, environmental studies, vegetation studies, canopy research, geological remote sensing and more.

The PSR-3500 spectroradiometer delivers the capabilities necessary to study environmental and climate change, water bodies, forests and biomass, crop health, and correlate hyperspectral imagery with ground truth. The PSR-3500 features:

• Fast, full-spectrum UV/VIS/NIR measurements with just one scan
• Superior reliability for field use with 100% diode array optics and no moving parts to break down
• Field switchable optics for different target sizes and measurement modes
• Standalone operation - holds up to 1000 scans internally without a computer
• Bluetooth interface for wireless communication
• Lightweight, compact Li-ion rechargeable batteries
• Rugged, less than 8 lbs. and easy-to-carry
• Optional Getac PS336 micfrocomputer tags scans with GPS coordinates, photos, and voice notes, has a sunlight readable VGA screen, and stores an almost unlimited number of scans

All spectrometers are equipped with the exclusive DARWin SP Data Analysis software package so you can take advantage of the following analysis features:

• Automatically saves data as a compatible ASCII file to use with third party analysis software - no extra export function is necessary, no hours of post-processing the day's scans
• Collect reference or target data with a single click
• Display reflectance/transmittance data (percentage) or absorbance (logarithmic) versus wavelength
• Single and multiple spectral plots available
• Compare current scans against libraries, including the USGS libraries
• Pull-down menu access to more than 19 vegetation indices
