Biblioteka spektralna gatunków zielnych Ogrodu Botanicznego Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego

An objective of this paper is to form a spectral library of endmembers of the Polish Lowland vegetation species, which were collected in the Botanic Garden of the University of Warsaw, which is one of the oldest (it was founded in 1818) and the smallest (5 ha) botanic gardens in Poland. For the data acquisition ASD FieldSec3 JR, Chlorophyll Content Meter CCM-200 and a digital camera were used. Each spectral library set contains: 300 separate spectrometric measurements (100 dark current, 100 white reference and 100 ASD Plant Probe Leaf Clip); Chlorophyll Content Index and biometric information (e.g. LAI, fAPAR); 3 digital photos, time and localisation data. The spectral library contains 73 characteristics of the most important plant species (from the “red list” of protected plants and the most famous plants of the Polish Lowland Flora). Now all these data will be upgrading the Swiss SPECCHIO library as a local Polish input to the European spectral database.
