Abstract

This paper synthesizes the technical requirements made by a group of French scientists and defence users expert in hyperspectral imagery to design a new space borne imaging spectrometer. This project called HYPXIM is currently in phase 0 mission study and two French aerospace companies have proposed solutions that are analysed by the CNES. These technical requirements are converted into at-sensor radiance specifications for each scientific application and the final radiance set used for the instrument design is defined.
