Title

Spectral super resolution

Abstract:

The utility of reconnaissance imagery can be enhanced by appropriate interpretation of its spectral information. Surveillance tasks such as recognition and identification can benefit greatly from this information, but typically employ sensors which only possess three or four spectral bands.

This work explores novel processing approaches to exploit variations in atmospheric conditions and sensor characteristics to increase the spectral resolution of standard reconnaissance imagery.

An analysis of the properties of spectra and of the atmospheric conditions is presented which provides an understanding of the underlying mechanism.

The variation in spectral response within a sensor is shown to provide great potential for this type of technique, which is demonstrated here on real and synthetic data.
