Comparison of laboratory calibrations of the Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) at the beginning and end of the first flight seasonSpectral and radiometric calibrations of AVIRIS are described together with changes in instrument characteristics that occurred during the flight season. These changes include detachment of the optical fibers to two of the four AVIRIS spectrometers, degradation in the optical alignment of the spectrometers due to thermally induced and mechanical warpage, and breakage of a thermal blocking filter in one of the spectrometers. Means of improving the instrument are discussed.
