Optical system design alternatives for the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer-Tilt (MODIS-T) for the Earth Observing System (EOS)The MODIS consists of two synergistic sensors with a total of 104 spectral bands in the 0.4-14.2-micron range. MODIS-T (Tilt) is one of these sensors. It is a 64-channel imaging spectrometer with a required 10 nm spectral resolution (FWHM) in the 400 to 1040 nm spectral range. The system will have a 1 km IFOV, a wide scan for global coverage in three days, and be capable of being pointed fore and aft of nadir by + or - 50 degrees.
