Advances in Development of Hyperspectral Sensors

Description

The book covers a variety of hyperspectral sensor design considerations and trade-offs, as well as a description of many of the foreign sensors used on various space missions and domestic efforts to create aerial hyperspectral sensors. It detailed how several image processing methods are utilized to analyze hyperspectral data. Examine the unique techniques created to enhance spectral discrimination using Indian hyperspectral data. Through a series of case studies, we will use hyperspectral data to distinguish between different types of crops, quantify the assessment of biophysical parameters, and comprehend and identify biotic and abiotic stress in plants. We've talked about how to quickly and accurately assess different soil properties using hyperspectral data in conjunction with spectra obtained in a lab to help with soil mapping. The use of narrow-band data in a radiative transfer model to estimate the impact of inelastic scattering on upwelling brightness in coastal and turbid waters has been studied. Finally, hyperspectral remote sensing has been shown to be a very potent instrument in examining planetary surfaces. Together, these articles offer a broad overview of the research being done in this area around the nation and the current trends. Given that Chandrayaan-2 and perhaps additional planetary missions are in the works, as well as Indian earth observation missions that will soon be equipped with full-fledged hyperspectral sensors, this collection of review articles could be helpful to a sizable community of academics.
