Hyperspectral Intelligence Inc.
Key takeaways
- Category: PPE & Protective Equipment
- Serves: Worldwide
- Operating: Founded in 2016
Hyperspectral Intelligence is a geologist-led company founded in 2016 by Dr. Michelle Tappert, Dr. Ralf Tappert, and Dr. Derek Rogge. The company develops compact hyperspectral rock scanning equipment paired with advanced in-house developed, proprietary, cloud-based data processing for the mineral exploration, mining, and energy sectors.
The company was founded after the founders, working with hyperspectral data in field and lab environments, identified limitations in conventional hyperspectral technology: single-point measurement systems could not capture enough data for meaningful results, while bulky imaging systems generated overwhelming amounts of low-quality data at high cost. On the processing side, common mineral-matching approaches were unreliable and produced inconsistent outputs. This led to two key breakthroughs: hardware innovations including the geoLOGr hyperspectral rock analyzer and the Hyperspectral Handheld Scanner, and development of the Lithotype Method, a new approach to hyperspectral data processing.
Hyperspectral Intelligence describes itself as a geologist-led company with a mission to make advanced hyperspectral technology accessible, reliable, and impactful for real-world operations. The company operates with a lean team structure to keep operations streamlined and pricing competitive while maintaining quality through automation in hyperspectral data processing and miniaturization of hardware. The company has delivered more than 110 deployments across five continents, supporting mining, energy, and environmental projects with accurate, reproducible results. Its systems are trusted by multinational mining companies, research institutions, and government partners worldwide.

Company details
- Projects and clients
- Re-processing of hyperspectral imagery from 805 drill cores from Alberta, Canada, totaling 50,840 meters, divided into seven chronostratigraphic intervals (Archean to Quaternary), re-processing of HyLogger-3 data from 15 exploration drill cores (~3,100 m) from the Musgrave Province, South Australia, spectral logging and dilution estimation of kimberlite drill cores from the NWT, Canada, spectral logging of legacy drill core from the Giant gold mine, Yellowknife, NWT, Canada, Golden Mile project with GRC Nevada (epithermal), five epithermal projects with GRC Nevada
- Scale
- 110+ projects completed, >0m drill core scanned across deployments, captures ~300 overlapping high-quality hyperspectral point measurements per meter with HHS, geoLOGr integrates hyperspectral point sensing with high-resolution linescan imaging at 35 μm resolution, 12/5 deployments in 12 countries and 5 continents, 6 years
- Also worth knowing
- Pioneers of the Lithotype™ Method for hyperspectral data processing. Founded by three PhD scientists with decades of expertise. Founders include Dr. Derek Rogge who published over 20 peer-reviewed papers about spectroscopy and geology, Dr. Ralf Tappert who published over 30 peer-reviewed papers about mineralogy, geochemistry, and spectroscopy plus a mineralogical textbook, and Dr. Michelle Tappert with more than 20 years of experience in collection, analysis, and interpretation of hyperspectral data. Claims to deliver decision-grade outputs in less than 48 hours, typically within 24 hours. Exploration teams report up to 75% reductions in lithologic logging time when using spectral outputs. Can reduce exploration project timelines from 6 years to 18 months. Projects can realize cost savings of $1M to $20M+ per project through faster cycles and higher-confidence models.
