Abstract

Hyperspectral remote sensing measurements using the Airborne Prism Experiment (APEX) instrument onboard the DO228-212 /D-CFFU - DLR aircraft for the HiLBilly- Hyperspectral imaging of lake biogeochemical properties in optically-complex systems (HILBILLY) project (flight reference: apex_dlr-dornier_20150711_LakeGeneve).

Data were collected over the Lake Biel and Lake Geneva, Switzerland area.

The APEX (Airborne Prism EXperiment) instrument is an imaging spectrometer developed by a Swiss-Belgian consortium on behalf of ESA. It is operated jointly by VITO (Belgium) and RSL (Switzerland). Please see the link to the APEX website from this record for further details.
