Between Dec 19, 2024 and Jan 2, 2025, datasets can be submitted to DRUM but will not be processed until after the break. Staff will not be available to answer email during this period, and will not be able to provide DOIs until after Jan 2. If you are in need of a DOI during this period, consider Dryad or OpenICPSR. Submission responses to the UDC may also be delayed during this time.

    This data set contains in situ reflectance spectra measured on 325 lakes and a few rivers broadly across the states of Minnesota and Wisconsin. The spectra were measured at the water surface at 1-nm intervals over the wavelength range 400-900 nm and are called "hyperspectra." Associated data include site identifications, key optical water quality variables measured on samples collected at the time of the reflectance measurements, two quantitative metrics of water color, dominant wavelength and hue angle, calculated from the hyperspectra, and values of the same two water-color metrics computed from simulated data for three satellite sensors (Sentinel-2 MSI, Sentinel-3 OLCI, and Landsat 8 OLI) derived from the hyperspectra using two published algorithms. The computed results are used to compare the reliability of the two published algorithms relative to the results obtained directly from the hyperspectra, which are considered to be the "true" values of dominant wavelength and hue angle metrics. In addition, the data set includes MATLAB code used in the computations.
