Sugumaran0958988This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).This MRI-R2 award provides NSF funding over 24 months to acquire a hyperspectral imaging system (HIS) which will be used for geological, environmental, biological, and geographical sciences. The HIS will enable wavelength scanning from 400 to 2500 nm allowing non-destructive materials imaging in both laboratory and field settings. The HIS will be applied to understanding materials by developing spectral image libraries under laboratory and field settings. It will be instrumental in understanding and modeling seasonal changes in materials using field-based observations. In addition the HIS system will be used to ground truth satellite and airborne hyperspectral remote sensing data. Applications for the HIS include crop residue modeling, water quality measurements and modeling, forest species identification and differentiation, lithography and dopant research, understanding lithography, lake core mapping and understanding urban infrastructure. The HIS is proposed for additional STEM research outside the geosciences to include dye and fabric detection and classification, wetland modeling, plant stress analysis, invasive species and wildlife monitoring and modeling, and art restoration and conservation. This effort will establish a capability serving a broad range of disciplines and departments at an undergraduate university. Impacts will span research, education, training, commercial partnerships and infrastructure. Summer workshops will provide outreach to K-12 students. Eight classes from Geography, Biology, Earth Science and Environmental Studies and the Physics Departments will be directly supported. The PI will have overall responsibility for administering the instrumentation. A 20%-time research associate will be allocated to oversee day-to-day operations and maintenance. Existing newly-renovated space will be used to house and store the instrument. The University has committed to purchase a four year extended warranty for the system. ***

Sugumaran 0958988该奖项由2009年《美国复苏和再投资法案》（公法111-5）资助。该MRI-R2奖项为NSF提供24个月的资金，用于购买高光谱成像系统（HIS），该系统将用于地质、环境、生物和地理科学。HIS将实现400至2500 nm的波长扫描，允许在实验室和现场设置中进行非破坏性材料成像。HIS将通过在实验室和现场设置下开发光谱图像库来应用于理解材料。它将有助于理解和模拟材料的季节性变化，使用基于实地的观察。此外，HIS系统将用于地面实况卫星和机载超光谱遥感数据。HIS的应用包括作物残留建模、水质测量和建模、森林物种识别和区分、光刻和掺杂剂研究、理解光刻、湖芯测绘和理解城市基础设施。HIS被提议用于地球科学之外的其他STEM研究，包括染料和织物检测和分类，湿地建模，植物应力分析，入侵物种和野生动物监测和建模，以及艺术品修复和保护。这一努力将建立一种能力，为本科大学的广泛学科和部门服务。影响将涵盖研究、教育、培训、商业伙伴关系和基础设施。夏季研讨会将为K-12学生提供外展服务。来自地理，生物，地球科学和环境研究以及物理系的八个班级将得到直接支持。PI将全面负责管理仪器。将分配一名20%时间的研究助理来监督日常运营和维护。现有的新装修空间将用于容纳和储存仪器。该大学已承诺为该系统购买四年的延长保修。***
