Sensor overview

High-level sensor availability before the detailed sensor records below.

Ground truth

Reference scope, method, rate, coverage, and provenance.

Ground-truth references for Argoverse 3D Tracking
Scope Method Reference system Count Rate Coverage Reference provenance
External
Measured using equipment independent of the platform’s normal onboard sensor pipeline.
Derived
Computed primarily from the dataset’s own recorded sensors.
Hybrid
Combines independent reference equipment with onboard measurements.
6DoF Other Not reported Not reported Not reported Full Reference provenance
External
Measured using equipment independent of the platform’s normal onboard sensor pipeline.
Derived
Computed primarily from the dataset’s own recorded sensors.
Hybrid
Combines independent reference equipment with onboard measurements.

Reference notes
GPS-based and sensor-based localization are fused. Exact estimator and achieved errors are not established; no raw GNSS/IMU inputs are inferred.
6DoF Manual annotation Not reported Not reported Not reported Partial · Human-Annotated Tracking Objects in the Mapped ROI and Visible in LiDAR Reference provenance

Reference notes
Cuboid poses/dimensions and identities follow LiDAR, with manual QA. SE(3) annotation coordinates support the 6-DoF pose mapping; actual permitted object tilt should be confirmed.

Parameters only

Processed calibration parameters are reported, but raw calibration data is not reported.

Notes

Per-log intrinsic and extrinsic information supplied for LiDAR and all nine cameras; raw calibration sequences not established.

Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

Annotations are restricted to mapped driveable-area ROI and visible LiDAR objects.

Faces and license plates are blurred.

The released lane map simplifies the fleet operational map; no universal map/pose accuracy bound is stated.

This entry describes Argoverse 1, separate from Argoverse 2. Paper-era scope is retained; later annotation/derived-product inventories require separate review.
