Sensor Name	# Bands	Wavelength Range (μm)	Spectral Resolution	Spatial Resolution (m/pixel)
Orbital
Landsat 8	9	0.43–2.3	Multi	15–30
ASTER	14	0.52–11.65	Multi	15–90
Hyperion	220	0.4–2.5	Hyper	30
HyspIRI	212	0.38–2.5	Hyper	60
HyspIRI	8	3–12	Multi	60
Airborne
AVIRIS	224	0.4–2.5	Hyper	5–50
NS001	8	0.46–12.3	Multi	5–50
TIMS	6	8.2–12.2	Multi	5–50
MASTER	50	0.4–13	Multi	5–50
HyMap	128	0.45–2.5	Hyper	3–10
HyTES	256	7.5–12	Hyper	2–10

Note: only the most recent Landsat imager is included in this table; the spatial resolution of airborne sensors depends on the height at which they are flown; HyspIRI is in the planning stage at the time of this writing.
