- Argonne National Laboratory
Description:
The potential use of hyperspectral imagery in global ecological model verification is illustrated by using hyperspectral imagery on a desert to determine if it is advancing or receding. To assess the condition of a certain area, one needs to identify the types of ground cover contained in it. Some plant species ore more tolerant of heat and drought than others and, thus, can be taken as indicators of a desert environment. Hyperspectral imagery is used to determine the kinds of plants present.
