<dd>Hyperspectral imaging spectrometers produce an image, comprised of the standard two dimensional spatial scene and the corresponding spectra of each scene. Hyperspectral imaging is a relatively new and fast growing field with both commercial and military applications. Commercial applications vary from vegetation identification and mapping, surface geological identification and mapping to atmospheric composition and mapping. Military applications include target identification and classification, airborne chemical identification and mapping, and rocket plume identification. This thesis describes the design and operation of the NPS Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (NUVIS). NUVIS is a hyperspectral imaging spectrometer designed to investigate the ultraviolet region of the spectrum. NUVIS is comprised of a scanning mirror, telescope assembly using an off axis parabolic mirror, a slit, a flat field imaging diffraction grating, an image intensified camera assembly, and the support controlling electric and electronic hardware and software. This is part a continuing project to build, test and use this sensor in support of military and government agencies</dd>
