This article reviews the potential of Hyperspectral Remote Sensing (HRS) technique in various geological applications ranging from lithological mapping to exploration of economic minerals of lesser crustal abundance. This work updates understanding on the subject starting from spectroscopy of minerals to its application in exploring mineral deposits and hydrocarbon reservoirs through different procedures such as atmospheric correction, noise reduction, retrieval of pure spectral endmembers and unmixing. Besides linear unmixing, nonlinear unmixing and parameters attributed to nonlinear behaviour of reflected light are also addressed. A few case studies are included to demonstrate the efficacy of this technique in different geological explorations. Finally, recent developments in this field like ultra spectral imaging from unmanned aerial vehicles and its consequences are pointed out.read more

A posteriori least squares orthogonal subspace projection approach to desired signature extraction and detection
TL;DR: An a posterior least squares orthogonal subspace projection (LSOSP) derived from OSP is presented on the basis of an a posteriori model so that the abundances of signatures can be estimated through observations rather than assumed to be known as in the a priori model.

Shadows on a Planetary Surface and Implications for Photometric Roughness
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use fractal surface statistics as a simple, quantitative, and general model for planetary surface roughness, and demonstrate that the scale which dominates surface shadowing is a function of intrinsic physical parameters such as the single scattering albedo and particle phase function.
