Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

The original collection has 111 recordings across 21 controlled scenarios with a stationary ego vehicle. Virtual multi-object overlays combine real recordings and are not additional independent captures in this count.

Use v1.1 for LiDAR: it fixes a v1.0 radar/LiDAR timestamp issue, removes noise and changes LiDAR coordinate fields. Older parsers may require updates.

Five road-user classes are separate from reflection order/type and ignore/sketchy labels. Documentation photographs do not establish continuous camera streams.

No independent platform trajectory, raw GNSS stream, universally achieved timing bound or complete raw calibration release is established.
