Summary:A review is made on the design philosophy of groundbased multichannel spectrometers for measurements of solar irradiation reflected from various natural formations within the visible and near infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Important specifics of the new generation ground-based spectrometers are the improved functional possibilities for the scientific experiments, management and for the specialized data processing. The instruments enable the performance both of automated mode of operation and within the payload of complex measurement equipment. The incorporation of proper computer techniques accounts for the increased intelligence and adaptivity which provides for the precise resolution necessary for the scientific methodology and applicable tasks.
