The University of Toronto Aerospace Team (UTAT) is an undergraduate student design team that is building an Earth-observation CubeSat called “FINCH” – which stands for “Field Imaging Nanosatellite for Crop residue Hyperspectral mapping”. Measuring just 10x10x30cm, FINCH will carry a SWIR-range hyperspectral imaging payload developed in-house from a combination of custom and commercial optics. Edmund Optics® is supporting UTAT by providing some of their TECHSPEC® SWIR imaging lenses.
