Galileo NIMS Spectral Radiance from Io's Active Volcanoes
The original data was obtained with the Galileo Near Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (NIMS) that covered the range from 0.7 to 5.3 µm during the period from 1989 to 2003. This set of volcanic thermal emission products contains observations of spectra of individual hot spots. The products represent an expansion of the NIMS Io Thermal Emission Database (NITED - Davies et al., 2012a, 2012b, 2014 – See documentation).
The data consists of observations during day and night. It includes collections of raw, converted and resultant data.
