Hyperspectral Remote Sensing for Terrestrial ApplicationsP SThenkabailauthorPTeluguntlaauthorM KGummaauthorVDheeravathauthorRemote sensing data are considered hyperspectral when the data are gathered from numerous wavebands, contiguously over an entire range of the spectrum (e.g., 400–2500 nm). Goetz (1992) defines hyperspectral remote sensing as “The acquisition of images in hundreds of registered, contiguous spectral bands such that for each picture element of an image it is possible to derive a complete reflectance spectrum.” However, Jensen (2004) defines hyperspectral remote sensing as “The simultaneous acquisition of images in many relatively narrow, contiguous and/or non contiguous spectral bands throughout the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared portions of the electromagnetic spectrum.”...Agriculture-Farming, Production, Technology, Economics2015-10-02CRC PressBook Section
