Preprocessing of EO-1 Hyperion data

A procedure for processing hyperspectral data acquired with Hyperion has been developed with an aim to correct for sensor artifacts and atmospheric and geometric effects. Advances in preprocessing of hyperspectral remote sensing data have enabled more accurate atmospheric correction and have led to the development of new information extraction techniques in the areas of agriculture, forestry, geosciences, and environmental monitoring. These processing and analysis tools have been incorporated into Imaging Spectrometer Data Analysis Systems (ISDAS), a software package developed at the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing (CCRS). The procedure, as applied for Hyperion data, begins with geometric corrections to the short-wave infrared (SWIR) component to register the SWIR and visible near-infrared (VNIR) data spatially. This is followed by the removal of stripes and pixel (column) dropouts and noise reduction, using recently developed automated software tools. The data cube is subsequently analyzed using keyston...
