GRSFE - The Geologic Remote Sensing Field Experiment

The Geologic Remote Sensing Field Experiment (GRSFE, 1990) used NASA aircraft to acquire data at visible through microwave wavelengths over targets in the southwestern United States that are useful analogs of the surfaces of other planets (Arvidson et al., 1991). While the airborne data were being acquired, ground-based measurements were made at the target sites to provide calibration and ground truth data. The intent of GRSFE was to develop comprehensive datasets to test models for estimating the properties of planetary surfaces. Data from the experiments was archived on a set of nine CD-ROMs produced by the PDS Geosciences Node.
