[visionlist] natural image database

[Bill Geisler]

Dear Colleagues:

A new database of calibrated high resolution natural images is 
available for research purposes at 
http://www.cps.utexas.edu/natural_scenes.  The images were obtained 
with a Nikon D700 Digital SLR camera.  The images are 4284 x 2844 
with 14 bits per channel RGB.  Metadata (camera parameters, GPS 
coordinates, etc.) is provided for each image.  Also provided are 
spectral sensitivity measurements for the camera's R, G, and B 
channels.  The website also contains example applications of some of 
the statistics measured from the database.
