October 29th, large field of view Airborne Hyperspectral Imaging Equipment Research and development and application demonstration project started in Wuchang Wuhan District, the project will fill the gaps in the field of Airborne Hyperspectral imager. The project team composed of Polytron Technologies Inc and Wuhan Kobe more than and 10 domestic and foreign research institutes, will become the most powerful R & D team and the industrialization, the development of airborne hyperspectral imager will meet the "The Belt and Road geological survey and mineral mountain environment survey", "precision agriculture" and other major national strategy demand.

The chief engineer of the Wuhan science and Technology Co., Ltd. Liu Liang Corben and R & D project organizers responsible for the introduction, the project will work to break the foreign monopoly, developing commercial type localization scanning type large FOV Airborne Hyperspectral Imaging Instrument and software, at present, Nanjing geological survey center and has developed a prototype, after the completion of the project, the project will the establishment of instrument engineering and industry chain complete, 2021-2023 instruments to be a total sales of 6 units a year to complete the flight service of 30000 square kilometers, the whole project sales and service output is expected to reach 250 million yuan.

Ministry of science and Technology Department of high and new Zhao Liang at the meeting, the project is the Ministry of science and technology national key research and development program, was named the national major scientific and technological equipment development focus, and access to 20 million yuan of central government funds to support.

It is reported that the project intends to produce the "simple, economic, practical and durable scientific instruments and equipment 'concept, the formation of the domestic and foreign experts on the R & D team collaborative research with innovation team, an international known hyperspectral application experts of Commonwealth of Australia science and Industry Organization (CSIRO) Dr. Yang Kai was in charge of the project, to employ both at home and abroad industry renowned experts participated in the research and development team, the implementation of the introduction, digestion, absorption and innovation system, the key technical difficulties of large field instrument and high signal-to-noise ratio, to carry out large field airborne imaging spectrometer development, software programming, application and industrialization demonstration instrument and research work, the formation of a new type of wide field scanning imaging system to verify the key device optimization and supporting software development, system integration, prototype application demonstration, engineering and industrialization of R & D industry chain Article, make the instrument "can use", "good use", "durable", and finally realize the commercialization of the instrument.
