Digital Vegetation Signature

What is the Digital Vegetation Signature (DVS)?

There is more to airborne remote sensing than meets the eye. Unlike satellite data, imagery collected with airplanes or drones is not calibrated. Most providers will say they calibrate their airborne spectral imagery, but it is not calibrated at the pixel-scale which is important in order to generate analytical quality data in space and time. In addition to high-resolution spectral calibration, LandScan has added a thermal and a hyper-spatial calibration process.

The Digital Vegetation Signature (DVS) technology can distinguish any two plants from one another and generate rapid, unique digital classifications based on spectral, thermal, and hyper-spatial characteristics. The DVS is generated using a system of software, hardware, and analytics and can be applied to both drone and airplane sensing platforms. The DVS is analytical quality remote sensing.
