ADS-B Training Dataset (dump1090 Output)
  Overview

    This dataset contains ADS-B data captured using the dump1090 program. 
    The data is organized into multiple directories, each representing a separate data collection session or environment. 
    The dataset is designed for use in training and evaluating models related to aircraft signal analysis, localization, 
    or reception quality prediction.

    Structure

    The dataset directory has the following structure:

    train_data/

  metadata.csv

    The metadata file provides descriptive information about each data capture session. It is a CSV file with the following columns:

    Column	Description
    file	Path to the data file relative to the dataset root
    shorthand	Short identifier for the data collection setup
    indoor	TRUE if the receiver was indoors, otherwise FALSE
    unobstructed_0-45	TRUE if the view in this range (degrees) was unobstructed (a window counts as unobstructed)
    unobstructed_45-90	TRUE if the view in this range was unobstructed
    unobstructed_90-135	TRUE if the view in this range was unobstructed
    unobstructed_135-180	TRUE if the view in this range was unobstructed
    unobstructed_180-225	TRUE if the view in this range was unobstructed
    unobstructed_225-270	TRUE if the view in this range was unobstructed
    unobstructed_270-315	TRUE if the view in this range was unobstructed
    unobstructed_315-360	TRUE if the view in this range was unobstructed

  Data Source

    All data files were generated using the dump1090
     ADS-B decoder. Each file contains decoded messages from aircraft transponders received by an RTL-SDR device.

Usage Notes

The unobstructed flags correspond to 45° sectors around the receiver.

Each data directory contains raw dump1090 output files.
