Parameters only
Processed calibration parameters are reported, but raw calibration data is not reported.
Notes
Official release layout documents config.yaml. Complete raw calibration sessions and achieved parameter accuracy remain unverified.
Known or intentional limitations
Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.
The collection is divided into five chunks of a pipeline inspection mission; these are not asserted to be five independent missions.
High-resolution video lacks exact synchronization and its reported 240 Hz remains unverified. Navigation is an INS/DVL estimate interpolated to image times, with unknown achieved errors and coverage.
Sonar acoustic carrier frequency is not a sample rate. COCO sonar detection and RGB segmentation have different annotation scopes; full raw calibration delivery remains unverified.
