Abstract
Remote sensing is being increasingly used in different agricultural applications. Hyperspectral remote sensing in large continuous narrow wavebands provides significant advancement in understanding the subtle changes in biochemical and biophysical attributes of the crop plants and their different physiological processes, which otherwise are indistinct in multispectral remote sensing. This article describes spectral properties of vegetation both in the optical and thermal range of the electromagnetic spectrum as affected by its attributes. Different methods have been discussed to reduce data dimension and minimize the information redundancy. Potential applications of hyperspectral remote sensing in agriculture, i.e. spectral discrimination of crops and their genotypes, quantitative estimation of different biophysical and biochemical parameters through empirical and physical modelling, assessing abiotic and biotic stresses as developed by different researchers in India and abroad are described.
