Abstract

Spectral measurement instrumentation for the study of absolute radiance and contrast in the 1.5 to 13 micrometer region has been fabricated. Measurement technology has been developed based on fifteen years of experience. Spectral measurement instrumentation and techniques are discussed, including calibration methods, data acquisition and data reduction. Examples of recent natural background spectra are presented in both absolute and contrast forms.
