Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Technology
- Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with a private firm to leverage Hyperspectral Remote Sensing (HRS) technology.
- The collaboration focuses on using HRS data for agricultural applications like crop mapping, crop stage discrimination, and crop health monitoring.
- HRS, also known as imaging spectroscopy, extracts valuable information from Earth's surface using radiance captured by air-borne or space-borne sensors.
- Unlike traditional remote sensing methods, HRS collects data in numerous narrow and contiguous spectral bands, allowing for detailed and precise spectral information.
- This detailed data enables accurate location identification, aiding in improved crop management and decision-making.
