Download literature

The FS 60 UAV hyperspectral measurement system uses high signal-to-noise ratio and ultra-high-speed CCD imaging equipment to provide highly stable spectral image acquisition; the self-developed high-efficiency and low-power image processing algorithm greatly extends the flight time of the whole aircraft and reduces the power consumption of the airborne hyperspectral system.
By measuring the spectral image information of plants, water bodies, soil and other ground objects in real time, it is applied to precision agriculture, crop growth and yield assessment, forest pest monitoring and fire monitoring, shoreline and marine environment monitoring, lake and watershed environment monitoring, etc.
The system is compact in design and the imaging spectrometer mainframe has high spectral resolution.
