Abstract Hyperion is a hyperspectral sensor on board NASA’s EO-1 satellite with a spatial
resolution of approximately 30 m and a swath width of about 7 km. It was originally designed
for land applications, but its unique spectral configuration (430 nm – 2400 nm with a ~10 nm
spectral resolution) and high spatial resolution make it attractive for studying complex coastal
ecosystems, which require such a sensor for accurate retrieval of environmental properties. In
this paper, Hyperion data over an area of the Florida Keys is used to develop and test
algorithms for atmospheric correction and for retrieval of subsurface properties. Remotesensing
reflectance derived from Hyperion data is compared with those from in situ
measurements. Furthermore, water’s absorption coefficients and bathymetry derived from
Hyperion imagery are compared with sample measurements and LIDAR survey, respectively.
For a depth range of ~ 1 – 25 m, the Hyperion bathymetry match LIDAR data very well
(~11% average error); while the absorption coefficients differ by ~16.5% (in a range of 0.04 –
0.7 m[superscript -1] for wavelengths of 410, 440, 490, 510, and 530 nm) on average. More importantly, in
this top-to-bottom processing of Hyperion imagery, there is no use of any a priori or ground
truth information. The results demonstrate the usefulness of such space-borne hyperspectral
data and the techniques developed for effective and repetitive observation of complex coastal
regions.
