"Hyperspectral coastal water imaging from space." 

Observing the Earth from space has changed the way we see our World – emerging hyperspectral imaging technology gives us a more complete picture. From space, we can monitor global changes on the Earth and use that information to forecast and assess impact of future changes. Emerging hyperspectral ocean color and coastal water imagers will revolutionize our ability to understand coastal water ecosystems by going far beyond existing multispectral systems by offering high spatial, spectral and temporal resolution simultaneously. This presentation reviews space-based ocean color and coastal water imaging beginning with the multispectral Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS) launched in 1978 through SeaWiFS launched in 1997 into the latest developments with hyperspectral NASA PACE OCI in sun synchronous orbit and GLIMR (Geostationary Littoral Imaging and Monitoring Radiometer) for NASA Earth Venture Instrument-5 (EVI-5).
