*.gain multiplication factors, radiance to 16-bit integer,
*.geo geometric calibration data,
*.eng engineering data,
*.nav navigation data,
*.rcc radiometric calibration coefficients,
*.readme this file,
*.spc spectral calibration file.
*.glt geometric look up table
*.glt.hdr geometric look up t
*.igm input geometry file
*.igm.hdr input geometry file header
PER SCENE (i.e., occurs once or several times per tar file/tape):
*.img calibrated AVIRIS radiance (image) data,
*.img.hdr image format of the scene
To list files (table-of-contents):
tar tvf "tar file name" (on disc),
tar tvf "device name" (on tape).
To extract files:
tar xvf "tar file name" "extract file name" (on disc),

PER FLIGHT LINE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*.info GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE FLIGHT LINE
File type: ASCII.
Information about the acquisition of the AVIRIS data.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*.gain MULTIPLICATION FACTORS, RADIANCE TO 16-BIT INTEGER
Contents: Multiplication factors to store radiance as 16-bit integers.
File type: ASCII.
Units: none.
Format: Two columns: - Multiplication factor,
- Channel number.
Use: When each spectrum is divided by the factors in this file the
16-bit integers are converted to radiance in units of (micro-
watts/cm^2/nm/sr).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*.geo GEOMETRIC CALIBRATION DATA
Contents: AVIRIS' spatial resolution on the ground.
File type: ASCII.
Format: Five columns: - Spatial sampling interval (pixel center to center
distance on the ground, in milliradians),
- Spatial response function (the FWHM (in milli-
radians) of the spatial response function (assumed
to be Gaussian); this is a measure of the nominal
pixel size),
- Spatial sampling interval uncertainty (in milli-
radians),
- Spatial response function uncertainty (in milli-
radians),
- Channel number.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*.rcc RADIOMETRIC CALIBRATION COEFFICIENTS
Contents: AVIRIS radiometric calibration coefficients and laboratory
calibration uncertainty.
File type: ASCII.
Units: microwatts per centimeter_squared per nanometer per steradian
per digitized_number.
Format: Three columns: - Radiometric calibration coefficent,
- Uncertainty in radiometric calibration coeff.,
- Channel number.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*.readme THIS FILE
File type: ASCII.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*.spc SPECTRAL CALIBRATION FILE
Contents: AVIRIS spectral calibration.
File type: ASCII.
Units: nanometers.
Format: Five columns: - Wavelength center position,

gaussian,
- Uncertainty in wavelength center position,
- Uncertainty in FWHM for equivalent gaussian,
- Channel number.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Band 2 original line number for the georectified image location.
A negative value indicates the georectified value has been
nearest neighbor interpolated
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
*.glt.hdr HEADER FILE FOR THE GEOMETRIC LOOK UP TABLE
File type: ASCII

16-bit integers.
File type: BINARY 16-bit signed integer IEEE.
Units: gain times (microwatts per centimeter_squared per nanometer per
steradian).
Format: Band interleaved by pixel (channel, sample, line) with dimensions
(224, ns, nl).

KNOWN ARTIFACTS
1) There is a slew effect in the AVIRIS detector array readout. Slew
expresses itself as a slight shift in the IFOV when moving from regions of
very different brightnesses.
2) In 2002, the bad detector at channel 77 has been interpolated.
