Multiscale Observing System of the Ocean Surface

The Multiscale Observing System of the Ocean Surface (MOSES) is an aerial observing system that was developed jointly at UCLA and Ifremer (France). It is a relatively low-cost package that includes off-the-shelf cameras, combined with accurate Applanix IMU/GPS to provide geo-referenced observations of the ocean surface. The primary camera in the system is a FLIR A6751 SLS longwave infrared camera, providing measurements of sea surface temperature at a resolution of several meters.
