Hyperspectral images of sediment samples collected in the Whangateau Harbour

This data contains the supplementary data for the article "<i>Evolving Multispectral Sensor Configurations Using Genetic Programming for Estuary Health Monitoring</i>". This dataset contains hyperspectral images of sediment with corresponding ground-truth measurements of porosity and organic matter content. Three items are included:<b>Sediment_reference.xlsx: </b>Contains the ground-truth measurements for the porosity and organic matter of the 150 cells of the quadrats measured.<b>Hyperspectral folder:</b> Contains all hyperspectral images of the cells of the quadrats captured as Numpy data files.<b>ROI folder: </b>Contains the masks for each hyperspectral image, segmenting the specular highlightsFor more details see the corresponding paper https://doi.org/10.1080/03036758.2024.2393297, and GitHub repository https://github.com/mrog173/Hyperspectral-Regression-GP.
