Elegant  Breadboard of an Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer for Climate  Observations — Instruments  like the imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer are essential science tools for  studying the structure and composition of the atmosphere. They provide data  that are used for weather forecasts and climate observations. This project, which involves participation by the University of Toronto, will build and test an Elegant Breadboard  of a nadir viewing imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer ( iFTS ) for near-term  capacity demonstration. This will de-risk the technology for future Canadian  missions such as AQ/GHG, while simultaneously advancing the technology for a  potential contribution to a future geosynchronous platform.
