In September 2018, a field campaign was performed to test the newly designed UAS systems at the Otanmäki Fe–Ti–V deposit in central Finland. In this report, the acquisition and processing of UAS-based magnetic, multi- and hyperspectral datasets in Otanmäki are described.

... is mainly due to its higher sample rate and its possibilities to better filter out high-frequency noise. To investigate the differences between the two flights, Figures 33-35 show the misfit in a) ELMcomputed data at the altitude of 35 m, b) corrected data and c) computed data at the original data locations between the two flights. As expected, the misfit is smallest for the ELM- ...

... magnetic signals associated with shallow anomalies. In the future, a better way to remove such noise while keeping more of the high-frequency signal content could be to apply the ELM from Radai Oy (see sections 3.1.1.4 and 5). Another option could be to add a Fig. 48. TMI map for the copter flight with a height level of 15 m a.g.l. In contrast to Fig. 3.39, a Gaussian filter with std. dev. = 50 m was applied in addition to the common processing to mitigate the remaining artefacts. The first vertical derivative of the TMI from the same ...

... the focus of the study was the investigation of soil and rock surfaces, the in-scene vegetation was removed. For this purpose, the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI; Tucker 1979) was calculated for both the multi-and hyperspectral mosaics (see Fig. 53) and a binary mask was created by using an NDVI threshold of >0.3. This binary mask was applied to clip pixels with a high vegetation content from the eastern part of the HSI mosaic. Note that the vegetation indices can also be a proxy for specific mineral abundances or soil factors (e.g. Grebby et al. 2014). Furthermore, studies have ...

... investigate how well magnetic and spectral characteristics coincide in detecting iron oxides, susceptibilities from a single susceptibility surface profile (profile 473; see Fig. 6) were compared with the band ratio values from the multispectral Sequoia survey, which indicate iron oxide mineral absorption (band 3/band 4). Figure 73 presents a map in which both the band ratio and the susceptibility measurements are plotted. Vegetation and lichen cover a significant part of the surface, which impedes the capability to detect minerals on the surface. ...
