Two Hyperion images of the Greenland ice sheet are used to characterize errors in the VNIR and SWIR detector arrays of Hyperion. Spatial variability in detector output is seen in both arrays and, in both cases, is largest at the shorter wavelengths and decreases as wavelength increases. Standard deviations of the maximum variability are 40 DN for the VNIR array and 123 DN for the SWIR array. Te...

We develop Hyperion a Wearable Augmented Reality (WAR) system based on Google Glass to access text information in the ambient environment. Hyperion is able to retrieve text content from users’ current view and deliver the content to them in different ways according to their context. We design four work modalities for different situations that mobile users encounter in their daily activities. In...

A plot of spin rate versus orientation when Hyperion is at the pericenter of its orbit (surface of section) reveals a large chaotic zone surrounding the synchronous spin-orbit state of Hyperion, if the satellite is assumed to be rotating about a principal axis which is normal to its orbit plane. This means that Hyperion's rotation in this zone exhibits large, essentially random variations on a ...

The retrieval of impervious surface information is a hot topic in remote sensing. However, researches on impervious surface retrieval from hyperspectral remote sensing imagery are rare. This paper illustrates a case study of information extraction from urban impervious surfaces based on hyperspectral remote sensing imagery that is intended to improve the image spectral resolution of impermeable...

Moreton Bay is the Australian EO1-Hyperion coastal site used for Cal/Val activities. Moreton Bay shows spatial gradients in optical depth, bathymetry, and substrate composition. The turbid and humic river inputs, as well as the open ocean flushing, determine the water quality of the bay. Recently lyngbya toxic algae blooms have become a serious environmental and health concern. The field campai...

Hyperspectral remote sensing is a powerful tool in discriminating lithological units and in preparation of mineral maps. Hyperion is a space borne sensor of Hyperspectral imagery having 220 channels within the 400 nm to 2500 nm wavelength range. Although the technical specifications of the sensor are quite high, in the operational stage there exist many nuisances like atmosphere. The presence o...

This paper provides a review of the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER), Advanced Land Imager (ALI), and Hyperion data and applications of the data as a tool for ore minerals exploration, lithological and structural mapping. Spectral information extraction from ASTER, ALI, and Hyperion data has great ability to assist geologists in all disciplines to map the d...

The Hyperion instrument on-board the EO1 satellite is an imaging spectrometer capable of acquiring hyperspectral data with over 200 contiguous spectral bands of about 10 nm bandwidth. The instrument is not designed for ocean observation. Nevertheless, case 2 water near the coastal regions with high sediment loading usually has higher reflectance in the visible wavelength region than the clear c...

Remote sensing provides a useful tool for mapping invasive species across large areas. This study compared the effectiveness of imagery derived from three multi-spectral (Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM), SPOT 5, and Quickbird) and hyperspectral (Hyperion) imaging platforms for detection of the invasive species Lantana camara L. in eastern Australia. Landsat TM multispectral (MS) image provided an ...
