Calling all remote sensing pros for views on a new techology

[geoconsult]

Hi !

We are developing a state of the art technology in remote sensing and for that we in the process of interviewing geologists and remote sensing technologists across the world to give their valued opinions in a meta analysis.

Just by providing your views on the following questions you could contribute to a better technique in remote sensing research. Please give your name and qualifications and contribute generously to our efforts!

What's your opinion on the following related to Multispectral and Hyperspectral Imagery analysis:

1. What kind of resolution (both spatial and spectral) is required today in remote sensing?
a. Is Hyper spectral Camera spectral resolution of 12nm and Multi spectral camera spatial resolution of 0.05m good?
2. What spectral range is wanted and would a higher spectral range be better?
3. Generally do you want to buy image material or finalized and processed data?
4. What is acceptable time from when the image is acquired until the finalized processed data is submitted?
5. When do you want to use this technology and why do you use the technology?

Looking forward to all qualified remote sensing pros and their replies!!



Thank you!

Best Regards,

Kumar

Hi Kumar,

I can give you an idea what the average treasure hunter who likes remote sensing from long range locators would like to see. These answers may not be possible with your equipment, but they are things the average treasure hunter would like to see.

1. What kind of resolution (both spatial and spectral) is required today in remote sensing?
a. Is Hyper spectral Camera spectral resolution of 12nm and Multi spectral camera spatial resolution of 0.05m good?
A visual resolution of about 1 foot or 30cm would be adequate, and the spectral resolution does not matter as long as it is easy to identify where the treasure is located.

2. What spectral range is wanted and would a higher spectral range be better?
Also does not matter as long as it tells us where the buried treasure is.

3. Generally do you want to buy image material or finalized and processed data?
Actually, it would be much easier if we could call in a set of coordinates, then you send a map to our iPhone showing where to put the shovel in the ground.

4. What is acceptable time from when the image is acquired until the finalized processed data is submitted?
15 seconds would be good. Actually up to a minute or two would work ok. But if it takes more than about 5 minutes, we might get tired of waiting.

5. When do you want to use this technology and why do you use the technology?
We want to use it when the treasure we recover is worth a lot more than the cost of using the technology. Why we would use it? To get rich.

Best wishes,
