Unlocking Hidden Treasures from Above by Hyperspectral Imaging Across Scales

Authors: Dr. Thomas Bahr, Dr. Friederike Koerting, Dennis Adamek, Dr. Daniel Schlapfer: Session A.10.01 EO for Mineralogy Geology and Geomorphology
This study explores how spatial resolution, (from satellite to airborne to drone platforms), affect mineral mapping and accuracy. Using ENVI-based workflows, researchers compared EnMAP, AVIRIS-NG, and HySpex data to demonstrate the strengths of hyperspectral imagery for mineral exploration.

Precision In Peril: SAR Strategies for Disaster and Emergency Operations

Authors: Nicolai Holzer, James Slater: Session F.05.04 Earth Observation in Governance: Bridging Data and Decision Making
This poster showcases the role of SAR in disaster management, from wildfire damage assessments in California to flood mapping in Spain and cyclone monitoring in Australia. Using ENVI SARscape and ENVI Connect, NV5 demonstrates how SAR delivers situational awareness in all weather and lighting conditions.
