Abstract 
Compressive Sensing (CS) systems capture data with fewer measurements than traditional sensors assuming that imagery is redundant and compressible in the spectral and spatial dimensions. This thesis utilizes a model of the Coded Aperture Snapshot Spectral Imager-Dual Disperser (CASSI-DD) CS model to simulate CS measurements from traditionally sensed HyMap images. A novel reconstruction algorithm that combines spectral smoothing and spatial total variation (TV) is used to create high resolution hyperspectral imagery from the simulated CS measurements. 
This research examines the effect of the number of measurements, which corresponds to the percentage of physical data sampled, on the quality of simulated CS data. The effect of CS on the data cloud is explored through principal component analysis (PCA) and endmember extraction.
