spectrography

(charting the strengths of different electromagnetic wavelengths)

Spectrography is virtually a synonym for spectroscopy or spectrometry. For more information, see spectroscopy. The form spectrography originated as a term for "the use of spectrographs", which specifically produced graphical representations of spectra. As now virtually any advanced spectroscope or spectrometer incorporates this capability, any of the three terms fit any such instrument.
