Description
Infrared imaging from aerial platforms can be used to detect landmines and minefields remotely and can
save many lives. This dataset contains thermal images of buried and surface landmines. The images
were recorded from a fixed camera for 24 hours with 15-minute intervals. DM-11 type anti-personnel
landmines were used. This dataset is available for landmine detection research.
The details of the data are given in [1] and [2]. If you use the dataset, you can cite any of the two
references.
allim.mat: A Matlab™ file containing an array of size 468x622x96, which is composed of 96 consecutive
thermal images.
