About this technology

Overview

HyperSTARS is a multi-sensor, high-dimensional data fusion technology combining methods from functional data analysis and spatiotemporal statistics to produce high-frequency hyperspectral visible to shortwave infrared (VSWIR) reflectance data. Current orbital hyperspectral VSWIR imaging missions (EnMAP, PRISMA, EMIT), and future missions (SBG, CHIME), will not achieve the weekly revisit recommended by the Decadal Survey in the VSWIR to address high-priority science questions on terrestrial ecosystem change and agriculture management, snow and ice dynamics, and inland and coastal ecosystem health. HyperSTARS provides the critical data fusion technology needed to produce high resolution hyperspectral data with quantified uncertainties.
