Abstract The Ocean Portable Hyperspectral Imager for Low-Light
Spectroscopy (Ocean PHILLS) is a hyperspectral imager specifically
designed for imaging the coastal ocean. It uses a thinned, backside-illuminated
CCD for high sensitivity and an all-reflective spectrograph with
a convex grating in an Offner configuration to produce a nearly distortion-free
image. The sensor, which was constructed entirely from commercially
available components, has been successfully deployed during several
oceanographic experiments in 1999-2001. Here we describe the instrument
design and present the results of laboratory characterization and calibration.
We also present examples of remote-sensing reflectance data obtained from
the LEO-15 site in New Jersey that agrees well with ground-truth
measurements.
