Urban area product simulation for the EnMap hyperspectral sensor
Low spatial resolution is a major limitation for remote sensing classification, especially in a urban environment. In this work, we will focus on the simulation of urban area environment at a low spatial resolution, comparable to the new hyperspectral sensors that will be launched in the next few years. The aim is to better understand the possibility offered by the new sensors, in a challenging scenario like the one represented by a highly mixed image. Particular attention is placed on the characteristics of the sensor EnMap, produced by DLR. The experiments conducted on a real data set confirm the challenges posed by low spatial resolution when analyzing a urban environment.
