4. Hyperspectral Imaging Systems

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is the primary function of hyperspectral imaging?

   Hint

   Think about how many bands it can capture.

2. 2.

   What does the term 'spectral filtering' refer to?

   Hint

   It's about breaking light down into parts.

3. 3.

   What is the primary advantage of hyperspectral imaging over multispectral imaging?

   • Captures a larger geographical area
   • Provides data in fewer bands
   • Collects data in hundreds of narrow bands

   Hint

   Think about how much information it captures.

4. 4.

   True or False: Hyperspectral images are used for monitoring soil erosion.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider its applications in environmental studies.

5. 5.

   Given the challenges of data management in hyperspectral imaging, propose a strategy to effectively analyze large datasets while maintaining accuracy.

   Hint

   Think about how technology can reduce complexities in handling large data.

6. 6.

   Imagine you are tasked with a project using hyperspectral imaging to monitor desertification. Outline the steps you would take, from data acquisition to analysis.

   Hint

   Consider all stages of a study, from start to finish.
