Spectral signatures refer to the specific way in which different materials on the Earth's surface reflect, absorb, and emit electromagnetic radiation across various wavelengths. Each type of surface feature, such as vegetation, water bodies, bare soil, or urban areas, has a unique pattern of reflectance that can be detected by remote sensing instruments. Vegetation, for example, strongly absorbs visible light, especially in the blue and red regions, due to chlorophyll, while reflecting strongly in the near-infrared region. This creates a characteristic spectral signature that allows differentiation between healthy vegetation, stressed vegetation, and other land covers. Water bodies typically absorb most of the visible and
