A workshop has been convened to continue exploring the uses of hyperspectral data for NOAA's applications.  

 

The goals were: :

- Update on Radiative Transfer (RT), both in the visible/near IR and the infrared

- Explore broadband adequacy versus Hyperspectral necessity for environmental characterizations (land, ocean, atmosphere)

- Discuss some of the instrument trade-space with respect to applications

- Understand the roles of LEO and GEO for various applications

- Familiarization with tools for interrogating and visualizing hyperspectral data

 

Questions include: :

- What are the advantages/disadvantages of Hyperspectral over multispectral data? Bring slides!

- What are the future directions for Hyperspectral radiative transfer?

- How can NOAA best prepare for antonymous instrument synergy?

- What are the future directions for data compression?

 

The workshop was hosted by SSEC and the Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies (CIMSS) and the local NOAA/NESDIS/ORA Advanced Satellite Products Team (ASPT) on the UW Campus.
