In-situ and airborne hyperspectral data for detecting agricultural activities in a dense forest landscape.

Maintaining rich biodiversity and being a habitat and resource for humans, tropical forests are one of the most important global biomes. These forest ecosystems have been experiencing a host of unregulated anthropogenic activities including illegal tourism, and shifting cultivation. The presence of human-habitats in the restricted zones of forest ecosystems is a direct indicator of the human activities that may accelerate deterioration of forest quality by area and tree species composition.

Multi-resolution terrestrial hyperspectral dataset for spectral unmixing problems.

Recent developments in the miniaturization of hyperspectral imaging sensors have given rise to the increased use of hyperspectral imagery as the primary data for evaluating spectral unmixing algorithms in applications such as industrial quality control, agriculture, mineral mapping, military, etc. This article presents an ultra-high-resolution hyperspectral imagery dataset for undertaking benchmark studies on spectral unmixing. A terrestrial hyperspectral imager (THI) is used for imaging the target scene with the camera sensor pointing horizontally towards the target scene.

Multi-platform optical remote sensing dataset for target detection.

Target detection in remote sensing has vital applications in mineral mapping, law enforcement, precision agriculture, strategic surveillance, etc. We present the acquisition of a first-of-its-kind high-resolution multi-platform (ground, airborne, and space-borne) remote sensing-based benchmark dataset for target detection studies. The dataset includes imagery acquired from terrestrial hyperspectral imager (THI), airborne hyperspectral sensor (AVIRIS-NG), and space-borne multi-spectral (Sentinel-2) sensor on 20th March 2018.
