The Advanced Land Observing Satellite "Daichi", launched in January 2006 by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), has the Panchromatic Remote-sensing Instrument for Stereo Mapping (PRISM) onboard. The PRISM is an optical sensor for observing visible terrain areas with a 2.5-meter spatial resolution. It has three independent optical systems and images for nadir, forward and backward views are acquired at the same time to get three-dimensional terrain data. The Images can be used for stereoscopy of topography.
