Hyperion (on EO-1) — specs?

likely sensors
  • 🛰️ Platform: EO-1 satellite
  • 🌈 Bands: 220 (hyperspectral), covering 0.4 – 2.5 µm
  • 🎯 Spatial resolution: 30 m
  • 📐 Orbit altitude: 705 km
  • 🔬 Use: mineral ID, species mapping, pollutant detection via spectral matching

⚠️ The hallmark of hyperspectral: hundreds of narrow contiguous bands (vs. multispectral’s handful of broad bands).
