FERI has designed and built a custom hardware and software package enables the delivery of HSI products in near-real time (within 24 hours). The processing of remote sensing field data to geo-rectified products typically includes a 6X multiplier on the data stream. such that a usual collcet of 40 GB of raw data becomes approximately 240 GB of processed data. The FERI infrastructure includes the data management and support mechanisms to provide the online delivery of all of our HSI data and product streams from the current schedule of 4-5 field deployments per year. The infrastructure is scalable and additional yearly field deployments are anticipated. FERI uses a database named HyDRO relay our data products to our research partners, coastal managers, and the general public.

The delivery of our full spatial and spectral resolution HSI data stream has required the development of a new web portal. This portal was developed in-house to operate over a unique web based interface. FERI's Hyperspectral Data Repository Online (HyDRO) is a password protected site where users can interactively select and customize the data they need.
