3D USCT II (2nd generation) experimental data. The following datasets are included: 1: Gelatin phantom 1 (plastic cup with gelatin an water inclusions) 2: Empty measurement with the same parameters as the gelatin phantom 1

In order to utilize the data, we provide a MATLAB interface. It can be accessed via GitHub repository at https://github.com/KIT-3DUSCT/3DUSCT-data-access-script. The source code is provided under 3-clause BSD-license.

The interface software enables retrieving A-scans, emitter and receiver positions, and additional meta data as e.g. ultrasound pulse information, temperature distribution in water. For questions and bug reports regarding the MATLAB interface please use the GitHub issue tracker.

Further information on the experimental setup (sytem description) are available on the webpage http://ipeusctdb1.ipe.kit.edu/~usct/challenge/?page_id=92
