GET

Instrument Instance

Get a list of Instrument objects. Instruments have a 1:1 mapping with Observations.

### Available end points:

- `/instruments/` - Will list all Instruments in the database
- `/instruments.json` - Will return all Instruments in json format
- `/instruments/<object_id>/` - Returns Instruments object with that id

### Available Methods:

- `GET`
- `HEAD`

### Available filters:

- `title`
- `uuid`
- `keywords`
- `instrumentType`

### How to use filters:

- `/instruments/?title__startwith!=Instrument.title: DETAILS NEEDED`
- `/instruments/?uuid=c7fa005e2095425392b18adbd7b40617`
- `/instruments.json?instrumentType=radiometer`

    "abstract": "The Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) on-board ENVISAT is an active C-band radar that provides land cover data regardless of cloud cover and time of day/night. ASAR was designed for continuity with the image and wave modes of the ERS-1/2 AMI-SAR. It features enhanced capability in terms of coverage, range of incidence angles, polarisation, and modes of operation. This enhanced capability is provided by significant differences in the instrument design: a full active array antenna equipped with distributed transmit/receive modules which provides distinct transmit and receive beams, a digital waveform generation for pulse \"chirp\" generation, a block adaptive quantisation scheme, and a ScanSAR mode of operation by beam scanning in elevation.",
