Abstract

The 2015 Data Fusion Contest, organized by the Image Analysis and Data Fusion Technical Committee (IADF TC) of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society (GRSS), aims at providing a challenging image analysis opportunity, including multiresolution and multisensor fusion at extremely high resolution. The 2015 Contest involves two datasets acquired simultaneously by passive and active sensors. The passive data is a 5cm-resolution color ortho-photo acquired in the visible wavelength range. The active data source is a 65 pts/m2 LiDAR 3D point cloud that is provided both as raw 3D coordinates (ASCII format) and as a Digital Surface Model (DSM) with a point spacing of about 10 cm. The laser scan rate, angle, and frequency were 125 Hz, 20°, and 49 Hz, respectively. The LiDAR data include the first, last and one intermediate return.
