Abstract
The Advanced Hyperspectral Imager (AHSI) is a visible/short-wave infrared hyperspectral imager on China’s GaoFen-5 satellite, which was launched on May 9th, 2018. The AHSI is the first spaceborne hyperspectral sensor that utilizes both the convex grating spectrophotometry and an improved three concentric-mirror (Offner) configuration. It has 60 km swath width, 30 m spatial resolution, 5-10 nm spectral resolution, and 330 spectral bands. Instrument performance was evaluated and validated through well-designed experiments on orbit. Results show that the performance of AHSI has met or exceeded predictions. The AHSI has outstanding capability of detecting and identifying different ground objects and in ecological environment monitoring and natural resource exploration.
