HyKo: A Spectral Dataset for Scene Understanding

Abstract

We present datasets containing urban traffic and rural road scenes recorded using hyperspectral snap-shot sensors mounted on a moving car. The novel hyperspectral cameras used can capture whole spectral cubes at up to 15 Hz. This emerging new sensor modality enables hyperspectral scene analysis for autonomous driving tasks. Up to the best of the author's knowledge no such dataset has been published so far. The datasets contain synchronized 3-D laser, spectrometer and hyperspectral data. Dense ground truth annotations are provided as semantic labels, material and traversability. The hyperspectral data ranges from visible to near infrared wavelengths. We explain our recoding platform and method, the associated data format along with a code library for easy data consumption. The datasets are publicly available for download.
