Hyperspectral Data Exploitation: Theory and Applications

The rapid growth of interest in the use of hyperspectral imaging as a powerful remote sensing technique has been accompanied by hundreds of articles published in journals and conference proceedings. With new findings and applications dispersed across numerous sources, this contributed work provides a much-needed synthesis of what is known, what can be expected from current research and development, and what new research is needed.The book's twenty-five contributors represent some of the field's most important innovators and pioneers from around the world. It begins with an overview written by the editor that discusses the design theory underlying the development of hyperspectral imaging techniques. This overview also provides a brief introduction to each of the book's thirteen chapters, with an emphasis on the interconnections among them. Chapters are organized into three parts: Tutorials, Theory, and Applications.
