Scientific and technical references¶
These sources explain the methods and data concepts used in the documentation. They are not a publication or validation record for hyperproc itself.
Imaging spectroscopy and ecosystems¶
- NEON imaging spectrometer: instrument context and ecological applications.
- NEON Airborne Observation Platform: airborne observation context.
Atmospheric retrieval¶
- ISOFIT documentation: inversion framework, installation, models, and upstream references. hyperproc orchestrates this framework rather than replacing it.
- Thompson et al. (2018), Optimal estimation for imaging spectrometer atmospheric correction, Remote Sensing of Environment, 216, 355–373. Publisher record / DOI: 10.1016/j.rse.2018.07.003.
Directional reflectance¶
- Queally et al. (2022), FlexBRDF: A Flexible BRDF Correction for Grouped Processing of Airborne Imaging Spectroscopy Flightlines. DOI: 10.1029/2021JG006622.
- NASA MCD43A1 Version 6.1 dataset description: BRDF/albedo model-parameter product, temporal support, and spatial scale.
- Roy et al. (2016), c-factor normalization: cited in
hyperproc.correct.cfactor. Full bibliographic record awaiting verification; no unverified DOI is supplied here.
Topographic and spectral methods¶
The implementation docstrings identify Teillet, Guindon & Goodenough (1982), Gu & Gillespie (1998), and Soenen, Peddle & Coburn (2005) as the foundations of cosine/C/SCS/SCS+C corrections. A complete, verified bibliography is under construction. The spectral-index registry also carries per-index references; these are source metadata, not a completed citation audit.
The spline implementation documents a port of R's smoothing-spline behavior.
tests/test_smoothing_r.py compares against retained R-reference fixtures
under tests/data/r_reference/. Consult the test guide
and the actual test results when reporting numerical equivalence; these
comparisons do not establish full scientific validity of gap filling.
Documentation and neighboring software¶
- HyperCoast and ISOFIT inspired this site's navigation and reference/tutorial separation.
- Material for MkDocs supplies the documentation theme.
- MkDocs configuration describes local builds and site settings.
Citing hyperproc¶
The checkout supplies an MIT license, repository URL, maintainer details, and
CITATION.cff for hyperproc 0.1.2 (declared release date
2026-10-03). Use the citation guide.
No DOI is declared; a remote release archive or package-index publication is
not verified by the local build. Cite upstream algorithms separately from
the hyperproc software citation.
