In this article, recent measurements made with LIFTIRS, the Livermore Imaging Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer, are presented. The experience gained with this instrument has produced a variety of insights into the tradeoffs-between signal to noise ratio (SNR), spectral resolution and temporal resolution for time multiplexed Fourier transform imaging spectrometers. This experience has also clarified the practical advantages and disadvantages of Fourier transform hyperspectral imaging spectrometers regarding adaptation to varying measurement requirements on SNR vs spectral resolution, spatial resolution and temporal resolution.
