The paper describes 176 nominal fifteen-second scenes; their arithmetic duration is not independently measured elapsed recording time.

Four physical cameras include two side fisheyes. Documented GNSS/INS ego-motion does not establish separately released raw IMU or satellite observations.

Four baseline classes differ from the fourteen native cuboid classes. Associated 2D detections are model-generated, and timing/rolling-shutter approximations remain.

Access includes an author-documented Kaggle route and a separately managed request route; complete raw calibration and all archive contents were not downloaded.
