# 🌱 GreenHyperSpectra: A multi-source hyperspectral dataset for global vegetation trait prediction 🌱

GreenHySpectra is a collection of hyperspectral reflectance data of vegetation from different sources. It is intended for Regression machine learning task for plant trait prediction with self and semi-supervised learning.

#### Check the data with Hugging Face datasets library
```
from datasets import load_dataset

### Labeled data: labeled_all ###
ds = load_dataset("Avatarr05/GreenHyperSpectra", "labeled_all")
df = ds['train'].to_pandas().drop(['Unnamed: 0'], axis=1)

display(df.head())
```
---
### 3. `Split labeled set`
- Files: all CSVs under `labeled_splits/`
These files follow the same format as the previous set but are pre-split for machine learning purposes. The split is stratified based on the dataset ID, with 20% of the data reserved for testing.

#### Check the data with Hugging Face datasets library
```
from datasets import load_dataset

### Labeled splits: labeled_splits ###
annotated_ds_train = load_dataset("Avatarr05/GreenHyperSpectra", 'labeled_splits', split="train")
annotated_ds_train = annotated_ds_train['train'].to_pandas().drop(['Unnamed: 0'], axis=1)

annotated_ds_test = load_dataset("Avatarr05/GreenHyperSpectra", 'labeled_splits', split="test")
annotated_ds_test = annotated_ds_test['train'].to_pandas().drop(['Unnamed: 0'], axis=1)

display(annotated_ds_train.head())
display(annotated_ds_test.head())
```
> ⚠️ **Note:** Due to the high dimensionality of spectral datasets—often containing hundreds or thousands of columns—**Hugging Face Data Studio may not render these files properly**. This is a known limitation, as the Studio interface is not optimized for wide tabular data.  
>
> To work effectively with this dataset, we recommend using the **Hugging Face `datasets` library** or the **MLCroissant Python library** for programmatic access and exploration.
