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.
