ORNL DAAC Request for New GCMD Platform: PRISMA

[ORNL - yaxingwei]

Hi,

As we're preparing metadata for data coming out of the SBG-SISTER project, we find ourselves in need of a new GCMD platform vocabulary entry, here are the details:

Platform Abbreviation: PRISMA
Platform Full Name: PRecursore IperSpettrale della Missione Applicativa
Hierarchical Path: Platforms > Space-based Platforms > Earth Observation Satellites > PRISMA
Description: PRISMA is an Earth observation satellite with innovative electro-optical instrumentation which combines a hyperspectral sensor with a medium-resolution panchromatic camera. This combination allows the capability of observation based on the recognition of the geometrical characteristics of the scene, as well as hyperspectral determination of chemical-physical composition of objects present on the scene. PRISMA is a program completely funded by Italian Space Agency (ASI) and is a follow on of the cancelled Hyperspectral Satellite for Earth Observation (HypSEO) mission. The satellite was launched on March 22, 2019 aboard a Vega rocket.

Thanks,
