Preferred term

SLAP  

Definition

  • The SLAP instrument on Langley’s King Air aircraft is an aircraft scale simulator of the instruments that were planned to be mounted on NASA’s upcoming Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission, which collects soil moisture measurements for ground validation. SLAP has both passive (radiometer) and active (radar) microwave L-band imaging capabilities, just as SMAP. (en)
