Abstract

This database consists of various color spectra sets that are measured from many different kinds of coloured samples. The purpose of this database is to function as a source of color spectra from where people can get spectra sets via WWW or anonymous ftp.

Contents

Currently we have got the following spectra sets:

• AGFA IT8.7/2 set
• Candy colors
• Daylight spectra
• Forest colors
• Lumber spectra
• Munsell colors matt (AOTF measured)
• Munsell colors matt (spectrofotometer measured)
• Munsell colors glossy (spectrofotometer measured)
• Natural colors
• Paper spectra

There is also picture database Autumn Colors.

How to obtain color spectra from database and how to unpack loaded files?

Some available C-programs and Matlab macros to use with spectra.

You can take closer look of Munsell Book of Color.

There are ten different databases available in graphical form, which are devided to parts according to the size of the database. The number of parts are shown in parenthesis. Databases are:

• Munsell colors matt (AOTF measured) (13)
• Munsell colors matt (Spectrofotometer measured) (13)
• Munsell colors glossy (Spectrofotometer measured) (1)
• Natural colors (3)
• Forest colors (11)
• Paper spectra (7)
• Candy colors (1)
• Lumber spectra (3)
• Agfa IT8.7/2 set (3)
• Daylight spectra (1)

Select database and the part you want to browse and press Load button to load spectra to the applet. NOTICE, that there is some delay on loading the spectra.
