As part of the Advanced Applications Flight Experiments (AAFE) Program, an imaging spectroradiometer known as MOCS (Multichannel Ocean Color Sensor) was designed, developed and flight tested. This unique instrument was flown on the NASA Convair 990 over various water bodies. The development program, the flight tests, and data analysis are presented. Computer routines developed specifically for reducing MOCS data are also discussed.
