# AI4Mars Dataset
A dataset for terrain classification on Mars, specifically focused on Curiosity (MSL) rover data.
## Dataset Structure
The dataset contains high-resolution Mars surface images with corresponding semantic segmentation masks for terrain classification.
### Features
- **image**: Original EDR (Engineering Data Record) images from Mars
- **label_mask**: Semantic segmentation masks with terrain labels
- **rover_mask**: Binary masks (1 = rover visible)
- **range_mask**: Binary distance masks (1 = beyond 30m)
- **has_masks**: Boolean indicating presence of rover and range masks
- **has_labels**: Boolean indicating presence of segmentation labels
### Labels
Terrain classes are encoded as RGB values in the segmentation masks:
- `(0,0,0)`: Soil
- `(1,1,1)`: Bedrock
- `(2,2,2)`: Sand
- `(3,3,3)`: Big rock
- `(255,255,255)`: No label/null
### Data Splits
- **Train**: Crowdsourced labels with:
- Minimum 3 labeler agreement
- 2/3 agreement threshold per pixel
- 30m distance cutoff
- Rover regions masked out
- **Test**: Expert-validated labels with:
- 100% agreement requirement
- Three versions available based on labeler agreement thresholds
### Image Products
All image products share matching base names with different extensions:
1. **EDR Images** (.JPG): Raw Mars surface images
2. **MXY Files** (.png): Rover mask products
3. **RNG Files** (.png): 30-meter range mask products
## Notes
- Current version (0.1) only includes Curiosity (MSL) data
- MER (Mars Exploration Rover) data processing is work in progress
- Range masks are derived from PDS (Planetary Data System) products
