Product \ VIS Line Scanner Visible Line Scanner APPLICATION • Airborne Remote Sensing in the visible wavelength range • ^Detection of features on the sea surface such as oil spills, chemical plumes and biogenic slicks • Acquisition of highly resolved geo-referenced RGB composite images • Documentation of the oil spill scene Visible remote sensing of marine pollution using the VIS Line Scanner The OPTIMARE VIS Line Scanner has been established as a supplementary tool for various airborne remote sensing applications, like for example airborne maritime surveillance. The VIS Line Scanner is a ruggedized, lightweight remote sensor for earth observation at visible wavelengths. In maritime surveillance, the system is used for acquisition of highly resolved geo-referenced Red/ Green/Blue composite images. These images can be used for documentation and for more exact volume estimations based on oil appearance codes.
