This resource provides a thorough introduction to the application of imaging spectroscopy in a Forest context. Besides imparting the fundamentals of imaging spectroscopy specifically for forest applications, this course gives access to free data sources, open-source software and hands-on training exercises. In-depth details on the physical and chemical factors controlling leaf and canopy reflectance, different forest traits, as well as basics of campaign- and sampling design and retrieval methods are provided.
This document contains the entire interactive MOOC “Beyond the Visible – Imaging Spectroscopy for Forest Applications”, published December 2025. However, users who want to complete the course with a certificate need to participate and pass the lesson quizzes, as well as the final quiz of the online version of the course.
