Data Sheet JSS 56
The JSS 56 is a compact, lightweight, long life and low cost multispectral imager product
applicable to all professional small satellite platforms. Covering the Earth’s surface conti-
nuously line-by-line (pushbroom principle) the imager of Jena-Optronik enables the precise
data acquisition of an 77 kilometres wide strip of land with a pixel size of 6.5 metres out of
630 kilometres orbit height.
