The Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) is an instrument on board the Mars Odyssey spacecraft. It combines a 5-wavelength visual imaging system with a 9-wavelength infrared imaging system.

THEMIS is a multi-wavelength camera:

5 visual bands:

0.425 microns, 0.540 microns, 0.654 microns, 0.749 microns, 0.860 microns

10 infrared bands:

6.78 microns (used twice), 7.93 microns, 8.56 microns, 9.35 microns,10.21 microns, 11.04 microns, 11.79 microns, 12.57 microns, 14.88 microns

Resolution:

visual images, 59 feet (18 meters) per pixel

infrared images, 328 feet (100 meters) per pixel

Additional Resources:

  • Davinci - Arizona State University (ASU) software for processing THEMIS data. Davinci is an interpreted language that looks and feels a lot like C, but has additional vector oriented features that make working with blocks of data a lot easier. This makes daVinci well suited for use as a data processing tool, allowing symbolic and mathematical manipulation of hyperspectral data for imaging spectroscopy applications.

  • THEMIS Web-based Processing Interface (THMPROC) - THMPROC is a web-based processing system provided by the THEMIS Data Node at Arizona State University (ASU) that allows users to log on and submit processing requests for creating THEMIS data products. The processing occurs remotely at ASU and users must first register for a free username and password. Map-projected output images include emissivity, temperature, and radiance data and a variety of stretches may be used. Register here.
