Spectral scene database

Brian Wandell edited this page Apr 18, 2020 · 64 revisions

The scene database includes three types of data.

  • Hyperspectral data measure from 400 to 900 nm
  • Multispectral data measure from 400 to 700 nm
  • HDR data were acquired with multiple exposures of a gray-scale camera

Hyperspectral scene data

We have collected a set of hyperspectral data resources that you can freely download. These are two-dimensional spectral scenes that you might find useful for testing with ISETCAM. These 2D spectral scenes include images of human faces, fruits, objects, and some outdoor scenes.

The hyperspectral scene data were measured from 400-950 nm using a special hyperspectral camera from our colleague Torbjorn Skauli in Norway.

The data are stored in the Stanford digital repository and can be downloaded from these links:

Specific links to the individual data sets

Multispectral scene data

The multispectral scene data were collected in the visible range (380-700nm) using a variety of different instruments. In some cases we built cameras with multiple LED illuminants. In other cases we used a variety of color filters in front of a single camera. Have a look at the publications.

(At the moment the data are on the Remote Data Toolbox site. The transfer is in process.)
