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 SemanticPOSS
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.

Reference notes
Hybrid annotation workflow of range grouping/camera assistance and human point/instance correction. Derived labels are a single coherent annotation product; no independently verified trajectory truth is established.

Calibration data

Calibration reproducibility details are not reported.

Notes

Calibration and GNSS/IMU plus SLAM poses support overlapping scans for annotation; released raw calibration or independent trajectory-reference inventory is not established.

Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

Single-campus, approximately five-minute/1.5-km capture provides limited geographic scope.

Unrecognizable points remain unlabeled; instance labels focus on people, riders and cars.

Camera imagery is described as annotation-only with future publication in this source.

Native fourteen-class labels and eleven-class evaluation must be distinguished.
