Description:
Airborne Imaging Spectrometer (AIS) data were acquired for several vegetation types within the humid temperate eastern United States. The spectral region covered, 0.9 to 2.1 microns, was little used in vegetation studies. A preliminary analysis of spectral curves suggests that variations between vegetation spectra may be useful for discriminating plant communities. Calibration and normalization procedures must be refined to compensate for cloud cover, detector and other system noise, and possible second-order effects.
