Radiometric calibration of all optical sensors is a key component to achieve high accuracy data, which is traceable to international standards and repeatable through time. This study introduces a Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) system that RAL Space has developed and presents a thorough analysis of the radiometric reflectance calibration chain required for both static and aerial applications, where the HSI system is mounted on an Unoccupied Aerial System (UAS). RAL Space HSI system comprises two commercially available Ximea snapshot mosaic imagers, one sensitive in the visible (VIS) and the other in the near infrared (NIR) spectral ranges, that are coupled with a dedicated PC and customized LabVIEW code for the capture, process and storage of the raw hyperspectral information (hypercubes). Both imagers are optically characterized for their electrical gain and offset, the vignetting and stray light effects, while the spectral response of each band has also been determined. The corrected digital numbers (DN) are then translated into reflectance values with the use of reflectance standards. For the aerial surveys, an additional step has been developed into the calibration chain that corrects for any changes in ambient illumination during flight with the use of ground based upward-looking measured spectra. Future work will include any correction needed due to temperature dependencies of the calibration chain steps.
