DMSP/F15, Special Sensor Microwave Temperature Sounder, SSM/T, The SSM/T is a seven channel, cross track nadir scanning passive microwave sounder having a field of view of 14.4 degrees. It measures the Earth's surface and atmospheric emission in the 50 to 60 GHz oxygen band. At nominal altitude, the subtrack spatial resolution is a circle of 174 km at nadir and an ellipse of 213x304 km toward the limb. There are seven total cross-track scan positions separated by 12 degrees at frequencies 50.5, 53.2, 54.35, 54.9, 58.4, 58.825 and 59.4 GHz.
