Description
The objectives of the HYPOS project (ESA ITT AO/1-8345/15/NL/LvH ) are to assess the accuracy of the biophysical parameters using full hyperspectral information or reduced hyperspectral information assess the potential of the red edge spectral bands to estimate mainly the two vegetation biophysical variables, leaf area index (LAI) and leaf or canopy chlorophyll content. To achieve this goal, the project has been split in four main tasks :
1) Build a database containing hyperspectral data and biophysical parameters.
2) Develop and evaluate method for hyperspectral data reduction
3) Develop, test and compare retrieval algorithms making use of reduced hyperspectral information (OSA) against retrieval algorithms receiving as input the full hyperspectral wavelength information (WSA).
4) Provide guidelines and recommendation for future hyperspectral optical missions and in-situ campaigns.
