In view of the rising number of imaging spectrometers deployed on airborne platforms and the launch of spaceborne imaging spectroscopy missions, an increasing need for Earth observation education and training activities with a focus on hyperspectral imagery is becoming apparent.
HYPERedu is an online learning initiative for hyperspectral remote sensing that is developed as part of the EnMAP science program.Â
From September 2019, HYPERedu started to publish slide collections and hands-on tutorials on EO College based on the open-source EnMAP-Box software, targeting basic principles, methods as well as applications of imaging spectroscopy. The content is continuously extended and updated and will be supplemented with further online learning materials in the future. All resources are provided free of charge under a CC-BY license in English at the master’s level, addressing students as well as professionals in research, companies, and public authorities.
For insights to the concept, implementation and lessons learned of HYPERedu, please see the following publication.
HYPERedu Content structure
HYPERedu is developed as part of the EnMAP mission science program funded within the German Earth observation program by the DLR Space Agency with resources from the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action.
The development of HYPERedu is coordinated by the German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) Potsdam in cooperation with Jena University, Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, LMU Munich and AWI with contributions from the EnMAP Science Team and colleagues.
