Specim 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.
