1. A method of spectral measurement comprises the steps of:
- capturing data representative of a first spectrum of a sample using a spectral transducer;
comparing the data representative of the first spectrum to data representative of a known spectrum for a sample substantially identical to the first sample and determining calibration data for transforming, according to a determined transformation, the data representative of the first spectrum into an approximation of the data representative of the known spectrum;
capturing data representative of a spectrum of a second sample using the spectral transducer; and
,estimating an ideal spectrum for the second sample using the calibration data, the estimation performed using the determined transformation.

Abstract
A method for spectral measurement is disclosed. The method uses a low-resolution grating to disperse light and thereby image a spectrum thereof. The imaged spectrum is converted into a digital electrical signal and is processed in order to enhance the spectral information. The resulting spectral information is analogous to that captured using a higher resolution spectral imager with optical processing of the spectral data. The method is equally applicable to enhancing resolution of spectra captured using high resolution spectral imaging devices.
