1. A method for localizing and navigating a vehicle on underdeveloped or unmarked roads, the method comprising:
- gathering image data with non-hyperspectral image sensors and audio data of a current scene;
classifying the current scene based on the gathered image data and audio data to identify a stored scene model that most closely corresponds to the current scene; and
setting spectral range of hyperspectral image sensors based on a spectral range used to capture a stored scene model that most closely corresponds to the current scene.

Abstract
A method for localizing and navigating a vehicle on underdeveloped or unmarked roads. The method includes: gathering image data with non-hyperspectral image sensors and audio data of a current scene; classifying the current scene based on the gathered image data and audio data to identify a stored scene model that most closely corresponds to the current scene; and setting spectral range of hyperspectral image sensors based on a spectral range used to capture a stored scene model that most closely corresponds to the current scene.

10. A system for localizing and navigating a vehicle on underdeveloped or unmarked roads, the system comprising:
-
a non-hyperspectral image sensor for gathering image data of a current scene about the vehicle; an audio sensor for gathering audio data of the current scene about the vehicle; a control module in receipt of the image data and the audio data of the current scene, the control module configured to; classify the current scene based on the gathered image data and audio data to identify a stored scene model that most closely corresponds to the current scene; and set spectral range of a hyperspectral image sensor based on a stored spectral range used to capture the stored scene model that most closely corresponds to the current scene. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
