MURI Progress— Continuing compilation of non-classified airborne hyperspectral data sets in units of surface emissivity in accessible on-line form Continued collection of laboratory data in support of surface emissivity library Test data collection of airborne hyperspectral data in Hawaii for atmospheric model validation.
Compilation of non-classified airborne hyperspectral data UH has collected 100’s of Gbytes of airborne hyperspectral data, but accessibility is poor (off-line DVD chronological storage) Data catalog is under development including geographic location, thumbnails and materials summaries.
