The Interdisciplinary Research Experience in Hyperspectral Imaging (IDREHSI)

最近的技术发展和实验室、航空和卫星高光谱成像(HI)数据的增加导致了对HI相关工作的日益增长的需求，这就要求更好地学习、理解和将HI用于各种应用。北爱荷华大学的REU SITE-高光谱成像跨学科研究体验(IDREHSI)项目是一个为期8周的暑期课程，每年向10名本科生介绍一个高度跨学科的研究环境，统一主题是HI的基础研究和应用研究。学生将有机会在不同的STEM领域从事基于HI的研究，如地理信息科学、地球科学、环境科学、物理、生物、计算机科学和大气科学，用于不同的应用。具体地说，他们将：(1)接触HI现有的科学方法和实验方法，(2)培养使学生在学术和职业环境中具有竞争力的技能，(3)参与为研究生学习和/或职业生涯做准备的科学调查，(4)在高度跨学科的研究环境中开展工作，并在以问题为基础的研究中跨越学科界限，(5)提高他们独立学习的能力，以及(6)提供机会讨论与收集和使用数据、实验设计和专业标准有关的伦理问题。IDREHSl REU计划的智力核心和统一主题是HI科学，涉及获取、处理、分析和解释由大范围电磁辐射波长中的多个连续频带表示的光谱。该计划建立在研究导师多年来与HI相关的研究活动的基础上，他们在HI科学的不同领域工作，并将通过开发REU项目将他们的研究与教育结合起来，这些项目可以由本科生在一个为期八周的项目中完成。这些项目要么基于实验室(涉及矿物和化学污染、土壤岩心、光伏和其他光电表征等材料的微观数据光谱分析)，要么基于野外(允许进行户外数据收集，包括水质监测和评估、作物状况评估、湿地测绘、土壤和沉积物测绘、入侵物种测绘和建模、城市规划和作物产量预测)。参与者将获得对年轻科学家特别有价值的专业和个人经验。该网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作支持。

Recent technological developments and the increased availability of laboratory, airborne, and satellite hyperspectral imaging (HI) data have led to a growing demand for HI related jobs which calls for greater learning, understanding, and use of HI for various applications. The REU Site - Interdisciplinary Research Experience in Hyperspectral Imaging (IDREHSI) program at the University of Northern Iowa is an 8-week summer school that introduces 10 undergraduate students each year to a highly interdisciplinary research environment with a unifying theme of fundamental and applied research in HI. Student participants will have opportunities to engage in HI based research in various STEM fields such as geographic information science, earth science, environmental science, physics, biology, computer science, and atmospheric science for different applications. Specifically, they will: (1) be exposed to existing scientific approaches and experimental methods in HI, (2) develop skills that make students competitive in academic and professional environments, (3) be involved in scientific investigations that prepares them for graduate studies and/or professional careers, (4) operate in highly interdisciplinary research settings and work across disciplinary boundaries in problem-based research, (5) improve their capability for learning independently, and (6) provide opportunities to discuss ethical issues related to collection and use of data, experimental design, and professional standards. The intellectual core and unifying theme of the IDREHSl REU program is the science of HI that deals with the acquisition, processing, analysis and interpretation of spectra represented by multiple contiguous bands in a wide range of electromagnetic radiation wavelengths. The program builds on years of HI-related research activities by the research-mentors who work in different areas of HI science and will integrate their research with education by developing REU projects that can be completed by undergraduates during an eight week program. These projects are either lab-based (involving microscopic level data spectral analysis of materials such as minerals and chemical contamination, soil cores, photovoltaics, and other electro-optical characterization) or field-based (allowing outdoor data collection including the monitoring and estimation of water quality, crop condition assessment, wetland mapping, soil and sediment mapping, invasive species mapping and modeling, urban planning, and crop yield prediction). Participants will gain professional and personal experiences that are particularly valuable for young scientists.This site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.
