OCI PACE Mission Preliminary Design Webinar

June 30, 2016

PACE Instrument Scientist Gerhard Meister (NASA Goddard Space Flight Center) will provide an overview of the current Ocean Color Instrument (OCI) concept. He will discuss the threshold requirements developed by the PACE Science Definition Team, orbit design, data coverage, optical system approach, data acquisition strategy (including spatial aggregation), expected signal-to-noise, and instrument calibration.

Animated and interactive features from this presentation are available below.
