Abstract

Spectrometer and Imagers for MPO BepiColombo-Integrated Observatory SYStem (SIMBIO-SYS) is an integrated suite of instruments, which has been selected for the ESA BepiColombo mission to Mercury. SIMBIO-SYS includes a stereo imaging system (STC), a high-resolution imager (HRIC) and a visible-near-infrared imaging spectrometer (VIHI). SIMBIO-SYS will scan the hermean surface with the three channels and map the physical, morphological, tectonic and compositional properties of the entire planet. The availability of high-resolution images will unveil details of specific target at an unprecedented resolution.

Goals

Sviluppo di una pipeline di calibrazione dei dati di STC.
Sviluppo di algoritmi di ricostruzione per la creazione di DTM.
