Question

Hyperspectral sensor consists of

• A. \( \text{Large number of wide and discrete bands} \)
• B. \( \text{Small number of wide and contiguous bands} \)
• C. \( \text{Large number of narrow and contiguous bands} \)
• D. \( \text{Small number of narrow and discrete bands} \)

Hint:

Think of hyperspectral as seeing the spectrum in very fine detail, like having many very specific color channels.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

A hyperspectral sensor is characterized by its ability to acquire data in a large number of narrow and contiguous spectral bands across the electromagnetic spectrum. This fine spectral resolution allows for detailed analysis of the spectral signatures of different materials and features.
