The Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) instrument is scheduled for launch in 1998 aboard the Earth Observing System (EOS) AM spacecraft. MISR consists of nine pushbroom cameras, and will, provide global coverage in four visible/near-infrared spectral bands. This measurement strategy provides systematic multi-angle imagery of the Earth for studies of aerosols, surface radiation, and clouds. AirMISR, airborne MISR simulator fabricated using a spare MISR camera, has flown on NASA ER-2 aircraft during 1997 and 1998 and obtained a number of multi-angle image sets
