> SPOT spectral bands: The spectral bands in SPOT imagery are: XS1 = green XS2 = red XS3 = near-infrared XS4 = short-wave infrared (SWIR) for SPOT 4 & 5 > RGB display: The RGB display scheme is: 1st band (1) in the extracted raster file displayed in the red channel 2nd band (2) in the green channel 3rd band (3) in the blue channel > TIFF file: To conform to the RGB display scheme, spectral bands in TIFF files are extracted in the following order: 1: XS3 2: XS2 3: XS1 To obtain the following display scheme for SPOT products: – XS3 displayed in red, since it is the 1st spectral band extracted (1) – XS2 in green (2) – XS1 in blue (3) The DIMAP file describes how spectral bands are assigned to channels to obtain this display scheme: 1 2 3 > BIL files: In BIL files, spectral bands are extracted in the following order: 1: XS1 2: XS2 3: XS3 The DIMAP file describes how spectral bands are assigned to channel
