A few thoughts on the hyperspectral lesson

[natalie-robinson]

Hi @lwasser

I had just a few thoughts on this lesson, take them or leave them:

• [ ] Would it be worth show another way to set a raster extent (e.g., show setting the extent with and without having to scale the data)?
• [ ] Maybe we could try to bring it all together by saying that you are going to have to do this every time you try to look at a dataset, so you should always start by getting the required info when you load the data (e.g., xMin, yMin, etc.)
• [ ] Kinda along the same lines - you could start the lesson by prefacing that these are the things we are going to need to get from the data in order to project a raster correctly in R: min/max X/Y, extent, etc. I think a bit more focus on the fact that these are needed by R, as it is not inherently a spatial application, might help people initially understand why they need to do all of this stuff.

@natalie-robinson I'm closing old issues that have been OBE. Can you let me know if this one is still relevant, and link to the lesson if it is?
