EMIT Science Data System(NPO-52219-1)

This software suite facilitates the mapping of Earth surface mineralogy from remote imaging spectroscopy data, along with aggregation and interpretation of the use of these data in Earth System Models.Facilitates the analyses of the EMIT objectives:1. The net contribution of mineral dust to regional and global radiative forcing is to warm the atmosphere (positive forcing)2. The impact of mineral dust on regional precipitation and radiative forcing will promote the expansion of dust source regions.
