Portable, Tripod-based, Hyperspectral System for Outdoor Measurements

Resonon’s Outdoor System is used to acquire hyperspectral data in the field where portability is critical. The Resonon pushbroom hyperspectral camera is mounted on a rotation stage that sits on a specially-modified tripod. During data acquisition the stage rotates the hyperspectral camera, scanning the scene of interest. The imager and stage are controlled using Spectronon software.
Raw hyperspectral data is converted to radiance and reflectance using radiometric calibration data and a calibration standard placed in the scene. The calibration standard is a special tarpaulin with a known (mostly flat) reflectance. These operations can be processed using Spectronon software.
Resonon’s systems are turnkey solutions ready for immediate use, including all hardware and software necessary to acquire and analyze hyperspectral data.
Outdoor systems can be fitted with any of Resonon’s hyperspectral imaging cameras covering the 350 – 1700 nm spectral range.
