Abstract: A set of hyperspectral imaging remote sensing instruments was designed and completed. The system included hyperspectral imaging subsystem, data acquired and storage subsystem, monitoring and controlling on ground subsystem and position and orientation subsystem. To validate the performance of this system, a serial of experiments had been made in Yantai and Yangzhou, high geometric resolution hyperspectral data was acquired. After analyzing the spectral characterization and geometric characterization of the acquired data, the results show that the position and orientation of unmanned helicopter have no distinct effect on spectral characterization, but the shake of motor of unmanned helicopter results in 4 pixels dither of the image in roll in the experiment. Finally, the geometric information of the hysperspectral data was corrected with the data of position and orientation subsystem and the error of the geometric correction was analyzed.
