Hyper-spectral imaging systems produce very large quantities of high fidelity information presenting an arduous task of exploitation for the image analyst. The Lockheed Martin Advanced Technology Center (LM/ATC) is investigating an aural cueing technique by which the spectral information is sonically encoded. This creates an image exploitation system that employs multiple sensory modalities, auditory as well as visual, to facilitate analysis of multi-modal imagery. This paper will summarize the encoding technique and describe several examples from a Fourier Transform Spectrometer whereby the spectral information is combined with traditional panchromatic imagery to create a multi-modal Imaging system. 1.
