Overview

The GigaMVS dataset is composed of 13 ultra-large-scale scenes , with a maximum area of 32007 m² and an average area of 8667 m². For each scene, a large number of gigapixel-level images are available, with both wide field-of-view and high spatial resolution. Regarding the evaluation, the dataset provides precisely labelled camera poses , as well as densely laser-scanned ground-truth 3D models, where the noisy point clouds and the transient objects are either carefully polished or eliminated by post-processing. Please refer to our paper on IEEE Xplore for detailed information of pictures and laser-scanned point clouds.

Annotation Description

File structure

The directory of the benchmark data includes 13 zip files, which correspond to the 13 ultra-large-scale scenes:


                                    |--Dataset_Folder
                                        |--scene1.zip
                                        |--scene2.zip
                                        |--scene3.zip

                                        |--scene13.zip

Scene Zip Files

Each sceneX.zip compressed package containing images, corresponding calibrated camera parameters and target poses (for novel view synthesis) of one scene. The directory is as follows:


                                |--sceneX
                                    |--images

Parameter Files

The camera files are organized in the same way as MVSNet. The camera parameter of one image is stored in a cam.txt file. The text file contains the camera extrinsic E = [R|t], intrinsic K and the depth range:


                                extrinsic
                                E00 E01 E02 E03
                                E10 E11 E12 E13
                                E20 E21 E22 E23
                                E30 E31 E32 E33
                                
                                
                                intrinsic
