The bandwidth (also known as FWHM) for your camera model may vary slightly depending on the serial number.
Note that the band order is not exactly in wavelength order (bands 4 and 5 are swapped). Once data is processed (such as in Pix4D or Agisoft), the layered geotiff output should have the correct band order. That is, processed geotiffs should be in wavelength order. However, if you used the image processing library to preprocess the data, the imagery will be in B-G-R-NIR-RE order.
For RedEdge-MX with serial numbers RX02 or higher, or Altum with serial numbers AL05 or higher, refer to the following table:
File suffix |
Band Name |
Center Wavelength (nm) |
Bandwidth (nm) |
1 | Blue | 475 | 32 |
2 | Green | 560 | 27 |
3 | Red | 668 | 14 |
5 | Red Edge | 717 | 12 |
4 | Near IR | 842 | 57 |
6 (Altum Only) | LWIR (Altum Only) | 11 μm | 6 μm |
For RedEdge-MX Blue (in the Dual Camera System):
File suffix |
Band Name | Center Wavelength (nm) |
Bandwidth (nm) |
6 | Coastal Blue | 444 | 28 |
7 | Green | 531 | 14 |
8 | Red | 650 | 16 |
9 | Red Edge | 705 | 10 |
10 | Red Edge | 740 | 18 |
For RedEdge-MX with serial RX01 or lower, Altum with serial AL04 or lower, all RedEdge 3, and all RedEdge-M, refer to the table below. Altum thermal (LWIR) band is unchanged.
File suffix |
Band Name |
Center Wavelength (nm) |
Bandwidth (nm) |
1 | Blue | 475 | 20 |
2 | Green | 560 | 20 |
3 | Red | 668 | 10 |
5 | Red Edge | 717 | 10 |
4 | NIR | 840 | 40 |
Note: Bandwidth is defined as the width of the filter that lets light of a certain wavelength pass. In other words, our Blue sensor has a width of 20nm that lets light of a center wavelength of 475nm pass through.
