AFX, compact all-in-one hyperspectral solution
|
The
Specim AFX series is an airborne hyperspectral imaging solution
based on the hugely successful Specim FX series. It is a compact
all-in-one device that includes an HSI camera, powerful computer
and a high-end GNSS/IMU unit.
At just over 2 kg, the Specim AFX can be used on multiple drone
types multirotor or fixed-wing, with or without a gimbal.
AFX series capabilities range from full hyperspectral to flexible
application-specific multispectral.
The AFX series are designed and built to be light-weight and rugged.
The in-built computer and high-quality survey grade GNSS/IMU provide
close sychronisation between image capture and location data for
accurate georeferencing. Optional software enables enhanced location
data post processing for even greater accuracy in cases where a
small GSD (Ground Sampling Distance) is required. The user interface
provided allows for a pre-prepared flight plan to be uploaded to
the system and for the user to select parameters that control when
data is captured. This enables autonomous airborne data collection.
However, if preferred manual ground-control can also be added with
the use of a radio link.
Jukka Okkonen, an expert in the field of airborne and remote sensing
hyperspectral systems, explains more about the new Specim AFX series.
