Abstract :
This paper presents brief profiles of 19 airborne hyperspectral sensor systems currently or nearly available for data acquisition. These systems represent various design concepts and innovations in hyperspectral information collection technology. A number of companies now have the ability to acquire data from these systems. As the scientific and commercial communities become aware of hyperspectral imaging data acquisition opportunities, more applications for this type of data will be investigated and implemented.<>
