Roof Types Dataset

The roof-type dataset includes 2224 samples of high-resolution RGB optical images of roofs alongside their elevation (DSM) data. This comprehensive dataset encompasses nine common roof types: Flat, Gable, Hip, Cross-Hip, Gable-Flat, Gambrel, Cross-Gable, Dutch-Gable, and Pyramid-Hip. The dataset has been structured into three parts, namely training, testing, and validation sets. The training set was created using buildings located in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, while the test and validation sets were generated based on buildings in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. To ensure the highest level of accuracy for CNN-based classification, the training set was augmented to make 1000 samples for each class. This dataset contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – New Brunswick.
