Heat Capacity Mapping Mission (HCMM) thermal surface water mapping and its correlation to Landsat
Alden P. Colvocoresses
1980, Open-File Report 80-265
The Heat Capacity Mapping Mission (HCMM) involves a relatively simple satellite recording the radiation from the Earth in the thermal band (10.5 to 12.5 μm) using an instantaneous field-of-view (IFOV, "footprint" or pixel) of 600 x 600 m. The enclosed graphics illustrate HCMM thermal mapping of water bodies as applied...
