Directly-Georeferenced Hyperspectral Point Cloud (DHPC) from the Mer Bleue Peatland (example dataset)

Directly-Georeferenced Hyperspectral Point Cloud (HPC_288band_xyz_final.txt) from the Mer Bleue Peatland near Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The point cloud is accompanied by a meta data file (HPC_288band_xyz_final_META.txt) that records important data parameters such as data acquisition instrument, data acquisition time, data acquisition date, sensor platform, spectral units, wavelength and full width at half maximum of each band, wavelength units, file type and map info. The Directly-Georeferenced Hyperspectral Point Cloud and its advantages over conventional raster data products are described in: Inamdar, D., Kalacska M., Arroyo-Mora J.P., Leblanc G., 2021.
