Measure While Drilling (MWD) dataset with rock type labels for 15 Norwegian hard rock tunnels

The dataset is presented in the paper: Building and analysing a labelled Measure While Drilling dataset from 15 hard rock tunnels in Norway, by T.F. Hansen, Z. Liu, J. Torressen The paper has a preprint on SSRN: http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4729646 and is under review in a peer-reviewed journal. The dataset is utilised in a machine learning analysis in the paper: Predicting rock type from MWD tunnel data using a reproducible ML-modelling process, by T.F. Hansen, Z. Liu, J. Torressen The paper has a preprint on SSRN: https://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4729647 and is under review in a peer-reviewed journal. Description of the dataset: Measure While Drilling (MWD) is a technique in rock drilling, mainly used in drill and blast tunnelling, where data about the rock mass is registered by sensors while drilling. The extensive and geologically diversified dataset contains corresponding MWD-data and rock mass mappings for 5205 blasting rounds from 15 hard rock tunnels in Norway. MWD-data are presented as tabular data. 10 different rocktypes are the corresponding labels. Four files are given: A csv-file of the training dataset - with outliers removed A csv-file of the testing dataset (split train/test 0.75/0.25) - with outliers removed A csv-file with the full unsplitted dataset, cleaned and with outliers removed A csv-file with the raw dataset, before cleaning, processing and outlier removal The author gratefully acknowledge the tunnel software/hardware company Bever Control, which have facilitated data from the clients Bane NOR, Statens Vegvesen, Nye Veier, and the contractor AF-Gruppen. NOTE: The dataset is only available for research, no commercial use.
