Field spectroscopic studies are important in hyperspectral remote sensing
for a number of reasons. The first is calibration of airborne and satellite-based
image products. All remotely sensed datasets have been imaged through a variety of atmospheric conditions, which usually incorporate varying amounts of
water vapour, C02, 02, and particulate matter. In addition, imaging is carried
out at various times of the year and, in some cases, during different times of the
day and under sometimes highly variable atmospheric conditions. To account
for this variability, image spectra can generally be compared to spectra that
have not been affected by these conditions. One method is to capture spectra
from a disparate range of pseudo-invariant targets (reference targets) at the
time of remote sensing data acquisition. As these ground-based spectra are not
collected through a large atmospheric path, they should be relatively free of the
adverse "noise" influences that are common in spectra recorded by airborne
