Development of a Roadside LiDAR-Based Situational Awareness System for Work Zone Safety: Proof-of-Concept Study (TTI-05-03)

Project Description: The collected LiDAR dataset was utilized to test and validate the developed detection and tracking algorithms through some designed scenarios under a controlled testing environment on the TAMU RELLIS campus. Two datasets were collected with a Velodyne VLP-16 sensor, mounted at 2.2 meters high on a portable tripod in two different sites (Table VIII). The first dataset, named TAMU_01, was collected on a six-lane urban road segment, though the primary region of interests covers one travel direction (three lanes). The second dataset, named TAMU_02, was collected on a four-lane highway segment, with again the primary region of interest covering one travel direction (two lanes). Data Scope: Please see the Safe-D_TTI-05-03_Dataset_Description file below. Data Specification: Please see the Safe-D_TTI-05-03_Dataset_Description file below.
