A Brief Survey on Hyperspectral Sensor

Remote Sensing plays a vital role in development of any particular country infrastructure. Among all sensors Hyperspectral sensors have an edge over other sensors as it provides better insights about the quality, quantity and type of elements present in any area as it provides spectral signatures in form of spectral bands over varied range of continuous electromagnetic spectrum. This survey lists the various type of hyperspectral sensors present in the world their specifications and applications, from the year 1987 till date 2022. Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS), Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer Next Generation (AVIRIS–NG), Hyperion, Compact High-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (CHRIS), Compact Airborne Spectrographic Imager (CASI), Digital Airborne Imaging Spectrometer (DAIS), Indian Airborne Hyperspectral Imager, medium-spectral resolution imaging spectrometer (MERIS), Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Hyperspectral Digital Imagery Collection Experiment (HYDICE), Hyperspectral Imaging System (HySIS), Shortwave Infrared Airborne Spectrographic Imager (SASI), Midwave IR Airborne Spectrographic Imager (MASI), Thermal Airborne Spectrographic Imager (TASI), Indian Microsatellite-1(IMS-1), ISRO Airborne imaging spectrometer (AIMS) are discussed in this paper.
