Description | To prepare for the upcoming Surface Biology and Geology (SBG) hyperspectral observing system,* NASA is embarking on a new activity that will provide the scientific community with SBG-like data products from airborne and space-borne imaging spectroscopy missions, e.g., the HyspIRI airborne campaigns, DESIS, HISUI, and Hyperion. This effort will also inform the science data processing architecture for SBG. NASA Ames Research Center is adapting its automated science processing operations developed for the Kepler and TESS exoplanet missions for the SBG precursor activity and seeks a post-doctoral fellow to assist with implementing science algorithms for processing imaging spectroscopy data from its raw state (Level 0) through to global gridded data products (Level 3).** The fellow will also have the opportunity to develop their own research algorithms suitable for use with SBG-like datasets. -- **Details on NASA data processing levels can be found at: https://earthdata.nasa.gov/collaborate/open-data-services-and-software/data-information-policy/data-levels |
