Multi-Sensor Object Detection Data from Infrastructure Sensors Deployed at Traffic Intersections in the City of Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA

Publicly accessible License

The dataset provided here was collected as a part of the US Department of Transportation (USDOT) Strengthening Mobility and Revolutionizing Transportation (SMART) project, where the City of Colorado Springs (Colorado, USA) and National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) collaborated to collect object-level trajectory data from road users using multiple types of infrastructure sensors deployed at different traffic intersections. The data was collected in 2024 across multiple days at various intersections in and around the City of Colorado Springs. The goal of the data collection exercises was to learn various attributes about infrastructure sensors and to build a repository of high resolution object-level data that can be used for research and development (such as for developing multi-sensor data fusion algorithms).Data presented here was collected from sensors either installed either on the traffic poles or hoisted on top of NREL?s Infrastructure Perception and Control (IPC) mobile trailer. The state-of-the-art IPC trailer can deploy the latest generation of perception sensors at traffic intersections and capture real-time road user data. Sensors used for data collection include Econolite?s EVO RADAR units, Ouster?s OS1 LIDAR units and Axis Camera units. The raw data received from individual sensors is processed at the edge compute device located inside the IPC mobile Lab, and the resulting object-level data is then stored and processed offline. Each data folder contains all the data collected on the day. We have transformed (rotation then translation) the raw detections to ensure the data from all sensors is represented in the same cartesian coordinate system. The object list attributes impacted from the transformation are PositionX, PositionY, SpeedX, SpeedY and HeadingDeg. The rest of the data attribute remains untouched. Users should note that we do not claim that this transformation is perfect and there may be some misalignment among the different sensors.

Data collected at the intersection of N Nevada Ave & E Platte Ave, Colorado Springs, CO, USA, using 2 EVO radars at 10 Hz, 2 Ouster lidars at 10 Hz, and 1 Axis Camera at 10 Hz, spanning a total duration of 63 mins.
