Data acquired with DETEC-2

You will find here all the data we acquire with the DETEC-2 prototype. Each data set is present in two file formats. I think most of you will use the type I format for which it must be easy to write import routines for your particular processing environment (a Matlab routine is available; if you write import routines for other standard environment, please send us a copy, so we can put them on our server too). The resolution of the horizontal grid in these data files is 10 mm x 10 mm; if you think this grid is too coarse for your processing algorithms, you can use the type S files (which are the raw traces with their coordinates) and use them to generate a finer grid. As the radar is used in free running mode, these files contain along the scan path a high density of traces, which allows to generate a grid with higher resolution in the X axis (in the Y axis the step is mechanically fixed at 1 cm). We tried for example to generate a grid of 5 mm x 10 mm, but in our case it didn't give significant images improvement.

The data sets currently available have been acquired in the loamy soil section of our sandbox, more data will be added in the following days. We expect to add soon data acquired in a Belgian exercise mine field and at the end of November data acquired in Cambodia.
