General information:

All images are in the image sequences are in BMP format and are 360 x 270 pixels. The example images shown on this web page are in GIF format.

There are two different image modalities:

  • the extension "v" refers to visual (visible light or CCD) images;
  • the extension "i" refers to infrared (thermal 3-5 micro m) images.
    • There are 3 different scenarios:
  • Series 1800*.bmp -- 1831*.bmp: UN camp (fence series)

    Example: visual image - 1809v.gif (left); thermal image - 1809i.gif (right)

  • Series 4900*.bmp -- 4918*.bmp: Trees

    Example: visual image - 4909v.gif (left); thermal image - 4909i.gif (right)

  • Series 7400*.bmp -- 7422*.bmp: Dune

    Example: visual image - 7411v.gif (left); thermal image - 7411i.gif (right)

    •  Image sequences:
