IEEE Standard for Characterization of Hyperspectral Imaging Devices--Ultraviolet Through Shortwave Infrared
This standard defines performance characteristics for hyperspectral imaging devices, usually referred to as hyperspectral cameras or imagers, as well as metadata for hyperspectral images, for a set of use cases defined to represent a wide range of applications. In the context of this standard, a hyperspectral camera or data set is defined as one in which pixel spectra are measured over a specified spectral range without gaps and with a spectral sampling interval not exceeding 1/30 of the spectral range. The standard considers cameras operating in the spectral range from 250 nm to 2500 nm wavelength, and applies to a defined set of hyperspectral camera architectures. Camera characteristics are defined to cover all key aspects of camera performance. Within the applicable camera architectures, the characteristics are defined so as to be directly comparable between cameras. Metadata are defined for describing camera-related aspects of a hyperspectral image, which can aid information extraction in the subsequent exploitation of the image.
