据澳大利亚的1985年3月报道,CarrBoyd矿产股份有限公司已成功地开发了一项用途极广的航空多光谱扫描仪样机,在矿产和石油勘探方面是一个很有价值的设备。样机是安装在飞机内的一个轻型性能稳定的仪器。它能测定并记录地面以下反射和放出的15频带的能级。测定数据是在高空1000～3000米进行的,在这样的高度,飞机不必密封.样机在2000米高空,能提供幅宽为4000米、清晰度为10米的扫描带。 According to Australia’s March 1985 report, CarrBoyd Minerals Co., Ltd. has successfully developed a prototype of a very versatile aerospace multispectral scanner that is a valuable asset in mineral and oil exploration. The prototype is a lightweight and stable instrument installed in the aircraft. It measures and records the 15-band levels reflected and emitted below the ground. The measurements are made at altitudes of 1000 to 3000 meters, at which altitude the airplane does not have to be sealed, and at a height of 2000 meters the prototype can provide a scanning zone with a width of 4,000 meters and a resolution of 10 meters.
