Applications and references in geology

The Earth and its resources have always been a major field of study. The most advanced commercial and research organizations are already taking advantage of the high speed and accuracy provided by hyperspectral imaging in the field and in airborne applications. Volcanology, water resources or mining areas detection are just some examples.
