    11The steps below describe an easy way of creating mosaics from mapped hyperspectral files, making use of the command line GDAL utilities. They can be installed on Windows through [http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ OSGeo4W], and are available on Linux through the package manager (e.g., yum, apt-get).

    3 The initial mosaic is a 'virtual raster', which comprises a text file with links to other files containing the data. It is created using the [http://www.gdal.org/gdalbuildvrt.html gdalbuildvrt] command, available with GDAL and also in QGIS through the Raster -> Miscellaneous menu.
