Abstract

COBAN (an abbreviation for "Multi-spectral Camera" in Turkish) is a Multi-spectral earth observing camera system developed for BiLSAT, a 129 Kg microsatellite, which was launched into a 686 km sun-synchronous orbit in 27 September 2003. COBAN is one of the two Turkish R&D payloads hosted by BiLSAT in addition to the two primary imager payloads (a 4 band multi-spectral 26m Ground Sampling Distance (GSD) imager and a 12m GSD panchromatic imager).
