this work aims to extract the mineralogical constituents of the lahroud hyperion scene situated in the nw of iran. like the other push-broom sensors, hyperion images suffer from spectral distortions, namely the smile effect. the corresponding spectral curvature is defined as an across-track wavelength shift from the nominal central wavelength, and alters the pixel spectra. the common “column me...

Earth Observing 1 (EO-1) Hyperion and Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) imagery were used to predict canopy nitrogen (N) concentration for mixed oak forests of Green Ridge State Forest in Maryland. Nitrogen concentration was estimated for 27 ground plots using leaf samples of the dominant tree species from each plot that were dried, ground and analyzed in the laboratory fo...

Airborne hyperspectral data have been available to researchers since the early 1980s and their use for geologic applications is well documented. The launch of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Earth Observing 1 Hyperion sensor in November 2000 marked the establishment of a test bed for spaceborne hyperspectral capabilities. Hyperion covers the 0.4–2.5m range with 242 spectral ba...

Hyperion is a hyperspectral sensor on board NASA’s EO-1 satellite with a spatial resolution of approximately 30 m and a swath width of about 7 km. It was originally designed for land applications, but its unique spectral configuration (430 nm – 2400 nm with a ~10 nm spectral resolution) and high spatial resolution make it attractive for studying complex coastal ecosystems, which require such a ...

We present a technique for discovering and representing changes between versions of data warehouse structures. We select a tree comparison algorithm, adapt it for the particularities of multidimensional data structures and extend it with a module for detection of node renamings. The result of these algorithms are so called edit scripts consisting of transformation operations which, when execute...

Radiometric calibration is the basis of both hyperspectral data applications and quantitative remote sensing. While at present, there is no good and suitable method for radiometric calibration in the aerospace hyperspectral data. The paper uses the highest spectral resolution Hyperion EO-1 satellite data in current world Spaceflight sensor as information source, using a variety of calibration m...

A multiscale approach to hyperspectral image data analysis using fractal signatures was proposed and implemented in the Interactive Data Language (IDL). For 2-D hyperspectral curves, fractal signature measures the changes in curve length with changing scale. Using NASA’s Earth Observing-1 (EO-1) Hyperion image from a study area near Denton, Texas, USA, the capabilities of fractal signatures in ...

Satellite-based hyperspectral imaging became a reality in November 2000 with the successful launch and operation of the Hyperion system on board the EO-1 platform. Hyperion is a pushbroom imager with 220 spectral bands in the 400-2500 nm wavelength range, a 30 meter pixel size and a 7.5 km swath. Pre-launch characterization of Hyperion measured low signal to noise (SNR<40:1) for the geologicall...

Hyperion, a hyperspectral sensor, and the Advanced Land Imager (ALI) are carried on NASA’s EO-1 satellite. The Evaluation and Validation of EO-1 for Sustainable Development (EVEOSD) is our project supporting the EO-1 mission. With 10% of the world’s forests and the second largest country by area in the world, Canada has a natural requirement for effective monitoring of its forests. Eight test s...

Various pushbroom imaging spectroscopy systems experience low-frequency array effects that are often referred to as spectral curvature effect or smile/ frown and keystone interferences [1, 2]. The detector elements in a pushbroom system are arranged on a rectilinear grid, therefore dispersing the slit onto the straight rows of detector elements leads to spatial misalignment of the wavelength an...
