AVIRIS-3 L2B Greenhouse Gas Enhancements, Facility Instrument Collection

Published by ORNL_DAAC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Metadata Last Checked: February 21, 2026 | Last Modified: 2026-02-17
This dataset contains Level 2B (L2b) enhancements of greenhouse gasses (GHG) derived from imagery collected by the Airborne Visible / Infrared Imaging Spectrometer-3 (AVIRIS-3) instrument. Products include methane and carbon dioxide enhancements, each with per-pixel uncertainties and sensitivities to the background. Concentration enhancements are estimated from radiance measurements using a column-wise adaptive matched filter approach, which searches each pixel's radiance spectrum for deviations that are characteristic of a GHG's absorption spectrum. This is the NASA Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) facility instrument archive of these data. The NASA AVIRIS-3 is a spectral mapping system that measures reflected radiance at 7.4-nm intervals in the Visible to Shortwave Infrared (VSWIR) spectral range from 390-2500 nm.
