The purpose of this work is to present a new dataset of hyperspectral images of historical documents consisting of 66 historical family tree samples from the 16th and 17th centuries in two spectral ranges: VNIR (400-1000 nm) and SWIR (900-1700 nm). In addition, we performed an evaluation of different binarization algorithms, both using a single spectral band and generating false RGB images from the hyperspectral cube.
