Introduction #

Released 2019-01-25 ·Christian Mostegel, Michael Maurer, Nikolaus Heranet al.

The primary goal of the Semantic Drone Dataset is to enhance the safety of autonomous drone flight and landing procedures through improved semantic comprehension of urban environments. This dataset comprises imagery captured from a bird’s-eye (nadir) perspective, showcasing over 20 houses, taken at altitudes ranging from 5 to 30 meters above the ground. The images are acquired using a high-resolution camera with a size of 6000x4000 pixels (24 megapixels). The training set includes 400 publicly accessible images, while the test set consists of 200 private images. Additionally, the dataset provides bounding box annotations for person detection within both the training and test sets.

Summary #

Semantic Drone Dataset v1.1 is a dataset for a semantic segmentation task. It is used in the drone inspection domain.

The dataset consists of 400 images with 40169 labeled objects belonging to 24 different classes including obstacle, paved-area, person, and other: vegetation, dirt, gravel, wall, grass, fence, rocks, roof, tree, fence-pole, ar-marker, bicycle, window, water, bald-tree, car, pool, door, dog, unlabeled, and conflicting.

Images in the Semantic Drone dataset have pixel-level semantic segmentation annotations. All images are labeled (i.e. with annotations). There is 1 split in the dataset: train (400 images). The dataset was released in 2019 by the Institute of Computer Graphics and Vision (ICG), Graz University of Technology, Austria.

Here are the visualized examples for the classes:

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.

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.
