Abstract
Methods for obtaining and analyzing data from a spectral source is provided. The method includes identifying an environment that is capable of generating spectral information, and obtaining the generated spectral information from the environment. The method further includes splitting the generated spectral information into a plurality of spectral data units. The spectral data units are further captured in separate storage entities and separately processed in parallel in order to produce a complete processing and quantification of the environment.
