Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

The 10K segmentation-image package overlaps with but is not strictly a subset of the 100K keyframes/videos. Detection, semantic, panoptic, tracking and later pose products have separate membership and annotation coverage.

The 100K forty-second clips give a nominal four million seconds, not independently measured unique ride time. Tracking labels/images are resampled at 5 Hz from 30 fps video.

Maintained documentation recommends revised 2020 detection labels. Object, semantic, panoptic and tracking taxonomies have different evaluated classes; no single aggregate class count is assigned.

Crowdsourced camera/navigation models, physical counts, native IMU/GNSS rates, calibration and independent reference accuracy remain unknown. GPS/IMU recordings are not independent pose ground truth.

Official GitHub documentation identifies the ETH data destination. Main-site requests timed out, documentation DNS failed and direct archive indexing returned 502 during review; current bulk reachability is unverified.
