Recent Experiments Conducted with the Wide-Field Imaging Interferometry Testbed (WIIT)

Abstract: The Wide-field Imaging Interferometry Testbed (WIIT) was developed at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center to demonstrate and explore the practical limitations inherent in wide field-of-view double Fourier (spatio-spectral) interferometry. The testbed delivers high-quality interferometric data and is capable of observing spatially and spectrally complex hyperspectral test scenes. Although WIIT operates at visible wavelengths, by design the data are representative of those from a space-based far…
