(*) The PAirMax dataset is a collection of data with the aim of assessing
the performance of pansharpening algorithms. The data collection
includes 5 test cases selected at full resolution (FR), acquired by two
sensors belonging to the Airbus' constellation of high-resolution
imaging satellites. Moreover, 5 related test cases at reduced resolution
(RR), simulated according to the Wald’s protocol, are included, thus
resulting in 10 challenging test cases for pansharpening performance
assessment. For further details, please, refer to the paper:
