Recent advances in remote sensing have led the way for the development of hyperspectral sensors. These sensors collect light in dozens to hundreds of contiguous wavebands to provide a detailed description of the target’s spectral signature. Hyperspectral remote sensing, also known as imaging spectroscopy, is a relatively new technology that is currently being investigated by researchers and scientists for its application in the remote detection and identification of minerals, terrestrial vegetation, and man-made objects.
