Abstract

The recent PRISMA (PRecursore IperSpettrale della Missione Applicativa) space mission, launched by the ASI (Italian Space Agency) on March 2019, brought in orbit a hyperspectral sensor (in the range <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$0.4-2.5 \mu\mathrm{m})$</tex> and a panchromatic camera with a spatial resolution of 30 and 5 meters, respectively. The PRISMA data are available for free (under license) and represent a unique orbiting source of hyperspectral data to investigate and analyze geophysical/geological phenomena. PRISMA works as the precursor of the next generation of ESA-SENTINEL satellites. In this work, a series of possible applications of PRISMA hyperspectral data are presented also considering data fusion with the panchromatic camera and the integration with other available satellite data as from Landsat and ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection).
