SAMEER-TU Outdoor Dataset





The SAMEER-TU Outdoor Dataset is being created in the Infrared Image Processing Laboratory of Department of Computer Science & Engineering of Tripura University, India, under a project with grant from the Society of Applied Microwave Electronics Engineering & Research (SAMEER), R & D Lab of Dept. of Electronics & Information Technology (DeitY), Ministry of Communications & Information Technology, Government of India. The SAMEER-TU Outdoor Dataset consists of around 5880 natural scenes images in different weather and illumination conditions, out of which 1100 images are captured in foggy condition, 306 images in poor illumination condition and 4474 images in normal condition. All those natural scene images are captured by NIKON D5100 and FLIR E60 in the outdoor environment after 15 minutes interval from 6 am to 6 pm in alternate five days from the month of January to March of the year 2014. During capturing, the temperature ranges from 10-degree centigrade to 24-degree centigrade, humidity ranges from 95% to 100%, dew point ranges from 10-degree centigrade to 15-degree centigrade, wind speed ranges from 1 mph to 3.5 mph and visibility ranges from 0 km to 1 km.
