1.3.2. Hyperspectral Imagery

Hyperspectral imagery is acquired using a sensor that collects many tens to even hundreds of bands of electromagnetic energy. This imagery is distinguished from multispectral imagery not only by the number of bands, but also by the width of each band. Multispectral imagery senses a limited number of rather broad wavelength ranges that are often not continuous along the electromagnetic spectrum. Hyperspectral imagery, on the other hand, senses many very narrow wavelength ranges (e.g., 10 microns in width) continuously along the electromagnetic spectrum (Palace et al, 2008).

1.3.3. Digital Camera Imagery

Most digital camera imagery is collected as a natural color image (blue, green, and red) or as a color infrared image (green, red, and near infrared). Recently, more projects are acquiring all four wavelengths of imagery (blue, green, red, and near infrared). The spatial resolution of digital camera imagery is very high with 1-2 meter pixels being very common and some imagery having pixels as small as 15 cm.

1.3.4. Other Imagery

There are other sources of digital remotely sensed imagery that have not been pre-sented in this paper. These sources include RADAR and LiDAR. Both these sources of imagery are important, but beyond the scope of this paper. RADAR imagery has been available for many years. However, only recently has the multifrequency component of RADAR imagery become available (collecting frequencies of imagery simultaneously and not just multiple polarizations) that significantly improves the ability to create thematic maps from this imagery. LiDAR has revolutionized the collection of elevation data (Maidment et al., 2007) and is a valuable source of information that can be used in creating thematic maps (Im et al., 2008). In the last few years, these data have become commercially available and are being used as a vital part of many mapping projects.
