 This paper presents a survey on hyperspectral based remote sensing supported by UAV platforms. Hyperspectral sensors provide more spectral range and precision than traditional imagery, making them useful in agroforestry applications. However, the sheer quantity of acquired data requires complex calibration and corrective tasks before relevant information can be retrieved. The paper discusses hyperspectral acquisition devices, pre-flight operations, post-flight pre-processing, and available toolboxes for simplifying data processing. Research works on the symbiosis between UAV hyperspectral for agriculture and forestry applications are also reviewed. Overall, the paper highlights the benefits of hyperspectral data over traditional imagery and multispectral data, and provides a comprehensive overview of hyperspectral based remote sensing supported by UAV platforms.
