Constellation for 3D wind data. |
| Description |
HyperCube is a 3D sounding instrument designed to measure the speed, direction, and elevation of wind in Earth’s atmosphere (3D wind data). Provides hundreds of hyperspectral bands. A Fourier Transform Spectrometem is much smaller and less expensive alternative to complex LiDAR wind measurements. Delivers more vertical layers of wind vector data at fine spatial resolution resulting in more accurate data. |
