🌍 Overview

Comprehensive, annotated dataset for object detection. This dataset consists of over 32 hours of real-world traffic data across 71 CCTV and 1 additional color cameras, spanning annual weather conditions.

Abstract Global warming has intensified the frequency and severity of extreme weather events, which degrade CCTV signal and video quality while disrupting traffic flow, thereby increasing traffic accident rates. Existing datasets, often limited to light haze, rain, and snow, fail to capture extreme weather conditions. To address this gap, this study introduces the Traffic Surveillance Benchmark for Occluded Vehicles under Various Weather Conditions (TSBOW), a comprehensive dataset designed to enhance occluded vehicle detection across diverse annual weather scenarios. Comprising over 32 hours of real-world traffic data from densely populated urban areas, TSBOW includes more than 48,000 manually annotated and 3.2 million semi-labeled frames; bounding boxes spanning eight traffic participant classes from large vehicles to micromobility devices and pedestrians. We establish an object detection benchmark for TSBOW, highlighting challenges posed by occlusions and adverse weather. With its varied road types, scales, and viewpoints, TSBOW serves as a critical resource for advancing Intelligent Transportation Systems. Our findings underscore the potential of CCTV-based traffic monitoring, paving the way for new research and applications. The TSBOW dataset is publicly available at the following link. **Code** -- https://github.com/SKKUAutoLab/TSBOW

📁 Format

Video Format

  • Video Standard: mp4 (H.265)
  • Video Resolution: 1280 x 720
  • Video Frame Rate: varied from 20 to 30 FPS
  • Videos are named as <video_id>.mp4

Image Format

  • Image Standard: jpg
  • Image Resolution: 1280 x 720
  • Images extracted from videos are named as <video_id>_<frame_id>.jpg. <frame_id> is 6 characters length.

Ground Truth Format

Annotations are provided in YOLO format with one *.txt file per image. If there are no objects in an image, no *.txt file is required. Each line in text file are the bounding box information of an object:

<class_id> <x_center> <y_center> <width> <height>

where

  • <class_id> (int): class index starting from 0
  • x_center, y_center (double): box coordinates normalized xywh format (from 0 to 1)
  • width, height (double): box width, height

Metadata Format

The CSV file provides metadata for each videos, including: scenario, daytime, weather, scale, roadtype, video_id, total_duration, and ROI zone.

  • SCENARIO (char): one of four values: r (road), i (intersection), s (special cases), d (disaster).
  • DAYTIME (char): d (day), n (night).
  • WEATHER (char): one of four values: n (normal), h (haze), r (rain), s (snow).
  • SCALE (char): one of three values: f (fine), m (medium), c (coarse).
  • ROADTYPE (char): one of three values: u (urban), s (standard), b (boulevard).
  • VIDEO_ID (string): video name.
  • DURATION (duration): total duration of whole videos (test + val + train).
  • ROI (string): a list of points in polygon.

Directory Structure

  • Train/Val/Test_Public:

    • videos.zip: video files.
    • annotations.zip: annotations include images and labels.
    • semilabels.zip: semi-labeled annotations include labels only. You can extract frames from videos.
    • Notes for Test_Public: In the first publication, we only public annotations of the last 30% of test set. The remaining files will be public in the future.
  • Others:

    • comparison.zip: annotations of datasets' comparison in Experiment section, include images and labels.
    • TSBOW_info.csv: metadata file.
