Introduction #

Enrique Puertas, Gonzalo De-Las-Heras, Javier Fernández-Andréset al.

The authors of the Roundabout Aerial Images for Vehicle Detection dataset have compiled a comprehensive collection containing 985,260 instances across 61,896 color images. These images consist of both real captures (15,474) and augmented data (46,422), all in JPG format. These images were sourced from eight distinct roundabouts, each representing various traffic flow conditions. The presented dataset contains real captures only.

(*) Data augmentation: Augmented data is available in the first version of the dataset.

Given the meticulous nature of image annotation, the authors employed an effective methodology to streamline the process which minimizes manual annotation efforts. This involves annotating a limited number of images to train Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models capable of auto-annotating additional cases. Although these auto-annotations necessitate review, this approach reduces the need for extensive manual work. To further enhance dataset diversity without additional annotation, the authors applied data augmentation techniques, generating apparent new images.

The data collection process began by recording aerial videos of roundabouts and filtering out poor-quality segments. Captured using a DJI Mavic Mini 2 drone under varying conditions, these videos were shot during daylight from different heights. Heights between 100 and 120 meters were chosen to maintain the roundabout’s visibility with entrances and exits discernible. This height range corresponded to a ground sampling distance (GSD) of 6.67 to 8 cm per image pixel.

Subsequent steps involved manual annotation of frames extracted from the videos using a Python script and annotation software. Annotations were created in PASCAL VOC XML format, generating an individual XML file for each image. To enhance dataset volume, data augmentation was applied using the OpenCV library and Python scripting. Synthetic images were generated by employing various flips, including horizontal, vertical, and combined orientations. This is a technique widely used to create seemingly new examples with the least amount of work.

Summary #

Roundabout Aerial Images for Vehicle Detection is a dataset for an object detection task. It is used in the vehicle detection domain.

The dataset consists of 15474 images with 245763 labeled objects belonging to 4 different classes including car, cycle, truck, and other: bus.

Images in the Roundabout Aerial Images dataset have bounding box annotations. There are 552 (4% of the total) unlabeled images (i.e. without annotations). There are no pre-defined train/val/test splits in the dataset. Additionally, the meta data about roundabout id (8 unique roundabouts), Drone’s lattitude and longitude, its height of exposure and height with zoom is provided. The dataset was released in 2022 by the Universidad Europea de Madrid, SICE Canada Inc., Toronto, and Universidad Francisco de Vitoria, Spain.

Co-occurrence matrix #

Co-occurrence matrix is an extremely valuable tool that shows you the images for every pair of classes: how many images have objects of both classes at the same time. If you click any cell, you will see those images. We added the tooltip with an explanation for every cell for your convenience, just hover the mouse over a cell to preview the description.

Images #

Explore every single image in the dataset with respect to the number of annotations of each class it has. Click a row to preview selected image. Sort by any column to find anomalies and edge cases. Use horizontal scroll if the table has many columns for a large number of classes in the dataset.

Object distribution #

Interactive heatmap chart for every class with object distribution shows how many images are in the dataset with a certain number of objects of a specific class. Users can click cell and see the list of all corresponding images.

Class sizes #

The table below gives various size properties of objects for every class. Click a row to see the image with annotations of the selected class. Sort columns to find classes with the smallest or largest objects or understand the size differences between classes.
