Part 1 covers the nature of hyperspectral imaging and the history of the development including airborne systems AVIRIS, PHILLS and the new PRISM, and the spaceborne HICO instrument on the International Space Station (http://hico.coas.oregonstate.edu).
Calibration and characterization of the sensors and on‐orbit calibration is also covered.
