The rapid development of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), miniature hyperspectral imagers, and relevant instruments has facilitated the transition of UAV-borne hyperspectral imaging systems from concept to reality. Given the merits and demerits of existing similar UAV hyperspectral systems, we presented a lightweight, integrated solution for hyperspectral imaging systems including a data acquisition and processing unit. A pushbroom hyperspectral imager was selected owing to its superior radiometric performance. The imager was combined with a stabilizing gimbal and global-positioning system combined with an inertial measurement unit (GPS/IMU) system to form the image acquisition system. The postprocessing software included the radiance transform, surface reflectance computation, geometric referencing, and mosaic functions. The geometric distortion of the image was further significantly decreased by a postgeometric referencing software unit; this used an improved method suitable for UAV pushbroom images and showed more robust performance when compared with current methods. Two typical experiments, one of which included the case in which the stabilizing gimbal failed to function, demonstrated the stable performance of the acquisition system and data processing system. The result shows that the relative georectification accuracy of images between the adjacent flight lines was on the order of 0.7–1.5 m and 2.7–13.1 m for cases with spatial resolutions of 5.5 cm and 32.4 cm, respectively.

Ocean Remote Sensing

Common methods of ocean remote sensing and seafloor surveying are mainly carried out by airborne and spaceborne hyperspectral imagers. However, the water column hinders the propagation of sunlight to deeper areas, thus limiting the scope of observation. As an emerging technology, underwater hyperspectral imaging (UHI) is an extension of hyperspectral imaging technology in air conditions, and is undergoing rapid development for applications in shallow and deep-sea environments. It is a close-range, high-resolution approach for detecting and mapping the seafloor. In this paper, we focus on the concepts of UHI technology, covering imaging systems and the correction methods of eliminating the water column’s influence. The current applications of UHI, such as deep-sea mineral exploration, benthic habitat mapping, and underwater archaeology, are highlighted to show the potential of this technology. This review can provide an introduction and overview for those working in the field and offer a reference for those searching for literature on UHI technology.

Measurement Capabilities

Discrete frequency infrared (DFIR) chemical imaging is transforming the practice of microspectroscopy by enabling a diversity of instrumentation and new measurement capabilities. While a variety of hardware implementations have been realized, considerations in the design of all-IR microscopes have not yet been compiled. Here we describe the evolution of IR microscopes, provide rationales for design choices, and the major considerations for each optical component that together comprise an imaging system. We analyze design choices in illustrative examples that use these components to optimize performance, under their particular constraints. We then summarize a framework to assess the factors that determine an instrument’s performance mathematically. Finally, we summarize the design and analysis approach by enumerating performance figures of merit for spectroscopic imaging data that can be used to evaluate the capabilities of imaging systems or suitability for specific intended applications. Together, the presented concepts and examples should aid in understanding available instrument configurations, while guiding innovations in design of the next generation of IR chemical imaging spectrometers.

We introduce a novel ultra-high-resolution Digital Terrain Model (DTM) processing system using a combination of photogrammetric 3D reconstruction, image co-registration, image super-resolution restoration, shape-from-shading DTM refinement, and 3D co-alignment methods. Technical details of the method are described, and results are demonstrated using a 4 m/pixel Trace Gas Orbiter Colour and Stereo Surface Imaging System (CaSSIS) panchromatic image and an overlapping 6 m/pixel Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Context Camera (CTX) stereo pair to produce a 1 m/pixel CaSSIS Super-Resolution Restoration (SRR) DTM for different areas over Oxia Planum on Mars—the future ESA ExoMars 2022 Rosalind Franklin rover’s landing site. Quantitative assessments are made using profile measurements and the counting of resolvable craters, in comparison with the publicly available 1 m/pixel High-Resolution Imaging Experiment (HiRISE) DTM. These assessments demonstrate that the final resultant 1 m/pixel CaSSIS DTM from the proposed processing system has achieved comparable and sometimes more detailed 3D reconstruction compared to the overlapping HiRISE DTM.

Data acquisition begins with the physical phenomenon or physical property to be measured. Examples of this include temperature, gas pressure, and light intensity, and force, fluid flow, regardless of the type of physical property to be measured. Physical property converted into digital, and then by the computer for storage, processing, display or printing process, the corresponding system is called data acquisition system.
