Infragram
by Public Lab

Combine an infragram camera with Public Lab's open source Balloon Mapping Kit for aerial infrared plant analysis!

What is Infragram?

An "infrablue" image is one in which the "red" channel of the image shows "near-infrared" light instead of the usual red. Such images can be generated using many inexpensive digital cameras and webcams by removing the infrared block filter and then adding a filter that selectively blocks red light (this is something the Public Lab Infragram kits nicely accomplish).

Learn how this technique works, and help improve it, by joining Public Lab, an open community working towards affordable, open source environmental science tools for real-world problems.
