HYRESSA: towards the improved provision of hyperspectral data across Europe

The Edinburgh Earth Observatory and NERC Field Spectroscopy Facility are part of a successful Accompanying Measures consortium funded by the EU Sixth Framework programme under the Research Infrastuctures action. The programme, ‘Hyperspectral Remote Sensing in Europe - Specific Support Actions’ (HYRESSA), aims to investigate issues associated with the provision, accuracy, quality and conformity of hyperspectral remotely sensed data across Europe with the advent of the next generation of hyperspectral instruments.

The intention is to refine protocols related to the acquisition, calibration, and, processing of such data in compliance with defined standards. Edinburgh will lead the final work package aimed at developing a plan for future collaboration related to an EU-wide hyperspectral remote sensing research infrastructure. The programme will assess both imaging and ground based hyperspectral systems.
