Abstract:The data set 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 computer 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) 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.
The file format .avi is an audiovisual file format. This file can be opened using most video players, including VLC media player (for more information on .avi files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/avi-file-extension). The .csv, Comma Separated Value, file is a simple format that is designed for a database table and supported by many applications. The .csv file is often used for moving tabular data between two different computer programs, due to its open format. The most common software used to open .csv files are Microsoft Excel and RecordEditor, (for more information on .csv files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/csv-file-extension). File extension .json is associated to JavaScript Object Notation file format, a lightweight, text-based, language-independent data interchange format. JSON defines a small set of formatting rules for the portable representation of structured data. It is used by various applications as alternative option to XML file format. The data in a json file are stored in simple text file format and the content is viewable in any simple text editor (for more information on .json files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/json-file-extension). The .txt file type is a common text file, which can be opened with a basic text editor. The most common software used to open .txt files are Microsoft Windows Notepad, Sublime Text, Atom, and TextEdit (for more information on .txt files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/txt-file-extension). The Portable Document Format (PDF) file format was developed by Adobe Systems and represents two-dimensional documents in a device-independent and resolution-independent format. There are PDF readers available on many platforms, such as Xpdf, Foxit, and Adobe's own Adobe Acrobat Reader. PDF readers/viewers or online services for basic functions are generally free (for more information on .pdf files and software, please visit https://www.file-extensions.org/pdf-file-extension).
