# πŸ›°οΈ CSDS: AI-Based Construction Site Detection and Segmentation Tool for Satellite Images
The **Construction Site Detection and Segmentation(CSDS)** is a large-scale dataset of construction site satellite imagery with detailed polygon annotations.
It contains both the **raw source data** (images and XML annotations) and **preprocessed training-ready splits** in YOLO format.
---
## Dataset Structure
## Notes
- All images and annotations are provided in **ZIP archives** for efficient storage and download.
- The `raw/` folder contains original images and XML annotations.
- The `preprocessed/` folder contains processed input images (600px and 1200px) and corresponding annotaions in YOLO-style train/test/val splits.
### Raw Data
```
raw/
β”œβ”€β”€ images/ # Original construction site images
└── annotations/
β”œβ”€β”€ AOD/ # XML annotations for *All Objects Dataset*
└── FVOD/ # XML annotations for *Fully Visible Objects Dataset*
```
- **AOD**: includes all annotated objects, even partially occluded ones.
- **FVOD**: includes only fully visible objects.
### Preprocessed Data
```
preprocessed/
β”œβ”€β”€ AOD/
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ 600/ # Images with input resolution of 600px (YOLO format)
β”‚ β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ train/
β”‚ β”‚ β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ images/
β”‚ β”‚ β”‚ └── labels/
β”‚ β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ val/
β”‚ β”‚ β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ images/
β”‚ β”‚ β”‚ └── labels/
β”‚ β”‚ └── test/
β”‚ β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ images/
β”‚ β”‚ └── labels/
β”‚ └── 1200/ # Images with input resolution of 1200px (YOLO format)
β”‚ └── (train/test/val structure as above)
β”‚
└── FVOD/
β”œβ”€β”€ 600/
β”‚ └── (train/test/val with images + labels)
└── 1200/
└── (train/test/val with images + labels)
```
- **AOD/** β†’ Preprocessed dataset corresponding to "all objects" annotations.
- **FVOD/** β†’ Preprocessed dataset corresponding to "fully visible objects" annotations.
- Each size folder (`600/`, `1200/`) contains YOLO-ready **`train/`**, **`val/`**, and **`test/`** splits with `images/` and `labels/` directories.
---
## Intended Uses
- Training and evaluating computer vision models for object detection and segmentation in construction environments.
- Benchmarking performance on **occlusion-aware vs fully-visible annotations**.
- Studying dataset preprocessing effects (image resolution: 600px vs 1200px).
