EuroSDR and ISPRS Test on "Pattern Recognition in Remote Sensing"
Call for data provision
The European Spatial Data Research Network (EuroSDR) and the International Society for
Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) will perform an empirical "Test on Pattern
Recognition in Remote Sensing" in the following called EuroSDR-ISPRS-Test. The goal of
the test is to assess the potential of recent classification and interpretation techniques in the
context of remote sensing image analysis. The data will be open for everyone who wants to
participate in the test. You can find the outline of the test in
Appendix A,
We invite you to provide data sets for this test. A data set consists of remote
sensing image and corresponding reference information, i. e. information about the land cover
of the individual pixels. In addition, a brief description of the land cover classes and image
data set should be provided. The data sets are meant to be collected on our server and made
freely accessible to the research community. The detailed properties of the envisaged data sets
are described in Appendix B.
We kindly ask you to tell us, whether you can provide adequate data sets for the EuroSDR-ISPRS-Test.
For this please use the form in
Appendix C,
one for each type of data set you
intend to provide.
We would be happy if you could support this test by proving data sets. Please send us the
forms back, not any data
until 15. August 2012.
On condition that an adequate number of data sets can be provided to perform a sound test,
we would ask you to make the data available within the next half year (approximately end of November 2012)
and provide you with a more detailed description of the required formats.
Please, send the information to the following persons:
We look forward to a fruitful cooperation.
Best wishes
Wolfgang Förstner, Björn Waske
