MERIS is a programmable, medium-spectral resolution, imagingspectrometer operating in the solar reflective spectral range. Fifteenspectral bands can be selected by ground command, in the range 390 nm to 1040 nm (bandwidth programmable between 2.5 and 30 nm).
The instrument scans the Earth's surface by the so called "push-broom" method. Linear CCD arrays provide spatial sampling in theacross-track direction, while the satellite's motion provides scanning in the along-track direction.
MERIS is designed so that it can acquire data over the Earth whenever illumination conditions are suitable. The instrument's 68.5° field of view around nadir covers a swath width of 1150 km. This wide field of view is shared between five identical optical modules arranged in a fan shape configuration, providing global coverage every 3 days.
Full resolution: 260m x 300mReduced resolution: 1040m x 1200 m (on-board spatial degradation)
