  • Airborne imaging spectrometry system and method
    Publication number: 20050104771
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to an airborne imaging spectrometry method and system. According to the present invention, a digital airborne imaging spectrometer is provided aboard an aircraft and is used to collect hyperspectral imagery of an area of interest while the aircraft flies over the area of interest. The method and system of the present invention combine (1) real-time display, aboard an aircraft, of the hyperspectral imagery being collected for an area of interest below the aircraft with (2) transmission of such hyperspectral imagery to a remote location, wherein such imagery is received at the remote location in near real-time. When hyperspectral imagery and related data are received from the aircraft at the remote location, the transmitted hyperspectral imagery and related data are useful at the remote location in time-sensitive or time-critical decision making.
