An Online Tool for Displaying and Processing Spectral Reflectance Images

Modern web browsers allow to manipulate different types of multimedia files and can be adapted, with standardized technologies (WebAssembly, WebGL, etc.), to an ever-increasing number of contents. In this article, we describe how we were able to set up the necessary data structures and software techniques to enable web browsers to manipulate and visualize multi-and hyper-spectral images. A demonstrator, based on two images from a SpecimIQ hyperspectral sensor, is also presented as showcase. https://doi.org/10.1109/SITIS.2019.00118
