SVH-BD : Synthetic Vegetation Hyperspectral Benchmark Dataset for Emulation of Remote Sensing Images

Chedly Ben Azizi, Claire Guilloteau, Gilles Roussel et al.

This dataset provides a large collection of 10,915 synthetic hyperspectral image cubes paired with pixel-level vegetation trait maps, designed to support research in radiative transfer emulation, vegetation trait retrieval, and uncertainty quantification. Each hyperspectral cube contains 211 bands spanning 400--2500 nm at 10 nm resolution and a fixed spatial layout of 64 \times 64 pixels, offering continuous simulated surface reflectance spectra suitable for emulator development and machine-learning tasks requiring high spectral detail. Vegetation traits were derived by inverting Sentinel-2 Level-2A surface reflectance using a PROSAIL-based lookup-table approach, followed by forward PROSAIL simulations to generate hyperspectral reflectance under physically consistent canopy and illumination conditions. The dataset covers four ecologically diverse regions -- East Africa, Northern France, Eastern India, and Southern Spain -- and includes 5th and 95th percentile uncertainty maps as well as Sentinel-2 scene classification layers. This resource enables benchmarking of inversion methods, development of fast radiative transfer emulators, and studies of spectral--biophysical relationships under controlled yet realistic environmental variability.

Hyperspectral and multispectral image fusion under spectrally varying spatial blurs -- Application to high dimensional infrared astronomical imaging

Claire Guilloteau, Thomas Oberlin, Olivier Berné et al.

Hyperspectral imaging has become a significant source of valuable data for astronomers over the past decades. Current instrumental and observing time constraints allow direct acquisition of multispectral images, with high spatial but low spectral resolution, and hyperspectral images, with low spatial but high spectral resolution. To enhance scientific interpretation of the data, we propose a data fusion method which combines the benefits of each image to recover a high spatio-spectral resolution datacube. The proposed inverse problem accounts for the specificities of astronomical instruments, such as spectrally variant blurs. We provide a fast implementation by solving the problem in the frequency domain and in a low-dimensional subspace to efficiently handle the convolution operators as well as the high dimensionality of the data. We conduct experiments on a realistic synthetic dataset of simulated observation of the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope, and we show that our fusion algorithm outperforms state-of-the-art methods commonly used in remote sensing for Earth observation.
