Description

Hyperspectral imaging has important benefits in remote sensing and target discrimination applications as well as in chemical detection and identification. This presentation will review recent progress and current state-of-the-art in hyperspectral instrumentation including dispersive spectrometers, imaging interferometers, and ‘snapshot’ systems for analyzing fast, dynamic events. Numerous application examples will be highlighted such as target detection and identification, earth resources monitoring, medicine, agriculture, forensics, environmental monitoring.
