ROAM@CRAS - A haRbor multidOmAin Mapping dataset

The ROAM@CRAS dataset was acquired using an Autonomous Surface Vehicle (ASV), the SENSE, equipped with a set of incorporated sensors for perceiving the surface and underwater domains (Velodyne VLP-16, Mynt Eye D and Imagenex ”Delta T” 837B) as well as navigation sensors such as L1/L2 RTK, GPS and IMU. This dataset was acquired during a campaign of the project DIIUS (Distributed perceptIon for inspectIon of aqUatic Structures) on the harbor of Marina de Leça, Porto, Portugal (https://goo.gl/maps/nHz9mA9Thqii6sy99). The ASV was remotely operated at all time performing a trajectory with distinct challenges for 3D mapping and sensor fusion applications, such as data imperfecteness, inconsistency and heterogeneity. All data was recorded using ROS bags each with ~14s duration to be played in sequence all together taking up to the total mission time (~1196s). The dataset provides a perspective of both domains available on the maritime environment, namely the surface and the underwater domains, giving essencial research data for maritime robotic platforms to increase the situational awareness and enhance the 3D mapping capacities to provide a more complete representation of the surroundings.
