UW-MRDC 3D WHEAT

The UW-MRDC 3D WHEAT dataset represents multispectral point clouds (PCs) of multiple wheat cultivars grown in controlled-environment cabinets at the Morden Research and Development Centre (MRDC) in Manitoba, Canada. The wheat PCs represent both Fusarium head blight (FHB)-infected and uninfected samples. The multispectral information within the PCs is defined by the red, green, blue (RGB), and near-infrared (NIR) colour information. The dataset was used to develop automated models to detect FHB symptoms in wheat, estimate the total number of spikelets and the total number of infected spikelets in a wheat head, and estimate the FHB severity in wheat.
