# Dataset Card for ScenicOrNot Uncompressed (Feb 26)

## Dataset Summary
The ScenicOrNot Uncompressed dataset contains crowdsourced aesthetic evaluations of landscapes across Great Britain. It originates from a collaboration between the Geograph British Isles project and the Data Science Lab at Warwick Business School. Each image has been rated by at least three human volunteers on a scale of 1 (not scenic) to 10 (very scenic). 

This repository provides the uncompressed images matched with their scenicness ratings, geographical metadata (latitude/longitude), and vote variances. 

## Supported Tasks
- **Image Classification / Regression:** Predicting the aesthetic "scenicness" score of an outdoor image.
- **Geospatial Analysis:** Correlating visual landscape features with geographical coordinates and regional planning.

## Dataset Structure
### Data Fields
- `id` (int64): Unique internal identifier for the dataset row.
- `gridimage_id` (int64): The specific Geograph URI/identifier for the image.
- `lat` (float64): The latitude coordinate of where the image was captured.
- `lon` (float64): The longitude coordinate of where the image was captured.
- `average` (float64): The mean scenic score calculated from the crowdsourced votes.
- `variance` (float64): The population variance of the submitted votes.
- `votes` (string): A comma-separated list of the individual integer scores submitted by users.
- `title` (string): The title or brief description of the image as provided on Geograph.
- `imagetaken` (string): The date the image was taken (format: YYYY-MM-DD).
- `image` (image): The uncompressed photograph feature.
- `__index_level_0__` (int64): The original index level inherited from the source dataframe.

### Source Data
Images are sourced from Geograph Britain and Ireland. The crowdsourced rating platform, Scenic-Or-Not, was originally created by mySociety and is currently maintained by the Data Science Lab at Warwick Business School.
