Abstract

A new passive microwave linescanner has been developed that will be used for airborne operational measurements of maritime oil pollutions. The system consists of two offset rotating parabolic mirrors and two radiometer sets, where each set contains three radiometers at 18.7, 36.5 and 89 GHz center frequency. A further 89 GHz radiometer is used for the measurement of the average radiometricsky temperature. The system is continuously calibrated by use of a hot load at ambient temperature and a Peltier cooled cold load. A computer system allows real time data reduction for the estimation of the amount of oil on the sea surface.
