BDMaizeSeeds: A Curated RGB Image Dataset of Commercial Maize Seed Varieties in Bangladesh

BDMaizeSeeds is a publicly available RGB image dataset containing 7,800 standardized images of ten commercially cultivated maize seed varieties collected from authenticated sources across Bangladesh. Images were acquired under controlled imaging conditions using a fixed camera setup and are provided as standardized (512×512) and preprocessed (224×224) versions. The dataset also includes an augmented training subset containing 38,220 images generated exclusively from the training partition to support reproducible deep learning research and comply with project data-sharing requirements. The dataset is intended for image classification, fine-grained visual recognition, transfer learning, visual similarity analysis, explainable artificial intelligence (XAI), and other agricultural computer vision applications.
