Description
We propose to develop a new and innovative capability to model the contribution of stellar sources to the background radiation detected by EO/IR sensors. This Star Background Model would comprise a new comprehensive database of known objects outside the solar system, both stellar and non-stellar, together with a means of estimating their in-band radiances for any waveband in the 0.2 to 15µm range. Software will be produced to access this database and provide FITS format images showing the objects and radiances for user-selected fields of view and wavebands. A fully functional interface to FLITES will be developed.
