Project Info

The "Open Sensor Data for Rail 2023" (OSDaR23, 10.57806/9mv146r0) has been created in a joint research project by the German Centre for Rail Traffic Research at the Federal Railway Authority (DZSF), Digitale Schiene Deutschland / DB Netz AG, and FusionSystems GmbH. Research report and Labeling Guide can be obtained from the DZSF website.

The data set consists of 45 sequences of annotated multi-sensor data (color camera, infrared camera, lidar, radar, localization, IMU). Data have been collected on different railway tracks in Hamburg, Germany.

License Info

The "Open Sensor Data for Rail 2023" (OSDaR23, 10.57806/9mv146r0) is published by the German Centre for Rail Traffic Research at the Federal Railway Authority (DZSF). Annotation data (file type .json) are published under CC0 1.0. Sensor data (file types .png, .pcd, and .csv) are published under CC BY-SA 3.0 de.

Further Info

The data set can be used in Python with the RailLabel package published by DB Netz AG.

The data set can be viewed, for example, with the WebLabel Player published by Vicomtech Research Foundation. (Disclaimer: Vicomtech was not part of the research project and there are currently no further relationships between DZSF and Vicomtech.)
