 This paper presents a survey on hyperspectral-based remote sensing supported by UAV platforms. Hyperspectral data provides more information than RGB or multispectral imagery, but its usefulness depends on pre- and post-flight calibration and corrective tasks. The paper discusses the advantages of hyperspectral data over other types of imagery, as well as the different types of hyperspectral sensors and acquisition modes available for UAV platforms. Pre-flight operations and post-flight pre-processing are also highlighted as necessary steps to ensure the usefulness of hyperspectral data. The paper presents several toolboxes that allow direct access to level 1 hyperspectral data and reviews research works on the symbiosis between UAV hyperspectral for agriculture and forestry applications. Overall, the paper aims to simplify hyperspectral data processing for common users by isolating mathematical complexity. This article was authored by Telmoedayo, Jonas Ruska, Luis Padua, and others.
