Abstract:

This supplement augments an ordered, indexed compilation of reflectances, radar cross sections, and apparent temperatures of target and background materials. The Data Compilation includes spectral reflectances and transmittances in the optical region from 0.3 to 15 micrometers and normalized radar cross sections active and apparent temperatures passive, plotted as functions of aspect or depression angle, at millimeter wavelengths. When available, the experimental parameters associated with each curve are listed to provide the user with a description of the important experimental conditions. This supplement contains the initial addition of reflectance distribution function data to the unclassified compilation. The data are presented in tabular form as a function of reflection angle for fixed incidence angles and discrete wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared spectral regions.
