Paper Numbering: Proceedings of SPIE follow an e-First publication model, with papers published first online and then in print. Papers are published as they are submitted and meet publication criteria. A unique citation identifier (CID) number is assigned to each article at the time of the first publication. Utilization of CIDs allows articles to be fully citable as soon as they are published online, and connects the same identifier to all online, print, and electronic versions of the publication. SPIE uses a six-digit CID article numbering system in which:

  • The first four digits correspond to the SPIE volume number.

  • The last two digits indicate publication order within the volume using a Base 36 numbering system employing both numerals and letters. These two-number sets start with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B … 0Z, followed by 10-1Z, 20-2Z, etc.

The CID Number appears on each page of the manuscript. The complete citation is used on the first page, and an abbreviated version on subsequent pages.

Authors

Numbers in the index correspond to the last two digits of the six-digit citation identifier (CID) article numbering system used in Proceedings of SPIE. The first four digits reflect the volume number. Base 36 numbering is employed for the last two digits and indicates the order of articles within the volume. Numbers start with 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09, 0A, 0B...0Z, followed by 10-1Z, 20-2Z, etc.

Introduction

Remote Sensing System Engineering VI was held 31 August - 1 September 2016, at the San Diego Convention Center as a part of the SPIE Optics+Photonics symposium in the Remote Sensing track of Optical Engineering+Applications. The goals of the conference were, first and foremost, to exchange critical and invaluable lessons learned and best practices in the systems engineering of ground-, air-, and space-based remote sensing systems. Additional goals were to share existing and emerging design approaches, engineering methods, tools, and future trends for engineering remote sensing systems.

Chaired by Dr. Jeffery J. Puschell (Raytheon Space and Airborne Systems) and Dr. Philip E. Ardanuy (Innovim), the conference featured remarkably diverse and interesting presentations on environmental remote sensing, advanced concepts, land and ocean remote sensing, space applications and enabling technologies across five oral sessions, plus additional presentations in a poster session. Authors and other participants came from around the world to participate in this conference, with European and Asian engineers and scientists joining their American systems engineering colleagues. Disc ussi on topics included: systems engineering best practices and lessons learned; system architecture and design; requirements, performance metrics, and measures of success; modeling and simulation tools and methods; design and integration of distributed architectures; use of commercial assets in future remote sensing systems; bridging and balancing across the science-to engineering and technologist-to-end-user valleys of “death and lost opportunities”; and the end user, effective data/information/system utilization, and optimum return on investment.

The conference chairs thank the presenters and authors for their fascinating and innovative contributions, which spanned the full diversity of the field. Presentations included the following papers published in these proceedings:

  • System engineering of the visible infrared imaging radiometer suite (VIIRS): improvements in imaging radiometry enabled by innovation driven by requirements by Jeffery J. Puschell of Raytheon Space and Airborne Systems
