# Description

Urban is one of the most widely used hyperspectral data used in the hyperspectral unmixing study. There are 307x307 pixels, each of which corresponds to a 2x2 m2 area. In this image, there are 210 wavelengths ranging from 400 nm to 2500 nm, resulting in a spectral resolution of 10 nm. After the channels 1-4, 76, 87, 101-111, 136-153 and 198-210 are removed (due to dense water vapor and atmospheric effects), 162 channels are left (this is a common preprocess for hyperspectral unmixing analyses). There are three versions of ground truth, which contain 4, 5 and 6 endmembers respectively, which are introduced in the ground truth.

# Characteristics

Ground Truth: three versions, including 4, 5 and 6 endmembers respectively.

- 4 endmembers version: The 4 endmembers are "#1 Asphalt", "#2 Grass", "#3 Tree" and "#4 Roof" respectively.

- 5 endmembers version: The 5 endmembers are "#1 Asphalt", "#2 Grass", "#3 Tree", "#4 Roof" and "#5 Dirt" respectively.

- 6 endmembers version: The 6 endmembers are "#1 Asphalt", "#2 Grass", "#3 Tree", "#4 Roof", "#5 Metal", and "#6 Dirt" respectively.
