Panchromatic and four-band multispectral optical imaging payload used on SuperView / GaoJing optical satellites.
PMS-3 is a passive optical high-resolution payload used in the SuperView / GaoJing programme for panchromatic and four-band multispectral imaging. [1] It combines 0.5 m native ground sampling, a 12 km swath, and five VIS/NIR channels: panchromatic, blue, green, red, and near-infrared across 450-900 nm. [1] The instrument performs optical time-series change detection and vegetation-index mapping, both demonstrated through SuperView. [1]
