Calibration for the stereo hyperspectral pushbroom camera HYPSOS

HYPSOS (Hyperspectral Stereo Observing System) is a promising design for future remote sensing of both the Earth and other extra-terrestrial bodies. The ability of simultaneous stereo and hyperspectral observation opens up a wide range of possibilities to contribute to planetary science. In order to validate the innovative concept of the instrument, different photogrammetric activities are foreseen. In order to elaborate the stereo-hypercubes for the reconstruction of the scene, the definition of the push-broom camera model within the pipeline become mandatory. The introduced method for estimating the camera model of the stereo hyperspectral pushbroom camera has been validated through a simulated version of the experimental setup that has been arranged in our laboratory for the validation of the stereo capabilities of HYPSOS.
