A Multi-Year Urban Streetlight Imagery Dataset for Visual Monitoring and Spatio-Temporal Drift Detection
- 部署22个固定角度摄像头,每小时采集图像,覆盖多变光照与天气条件。
- 收集超52万张图像,提供时间、位置、设备等丰富元数据,支持长期稳定性评估。
- 配套自监督框架,可检测图像域退化与潜在空间漂移,适合智能城市部署研究。
我们发布了大规模、长期性的城市街灯视觉数据集,由英国布里斯托尔市22个固定视角摄像头于2021至2025年间采集。数据集包含超过526,000张图像,按小时采集,涵盖多样光照、天气与季节条件。每张图像附带时间戳、GPS坐标及设备标识等丰富元数据。该真实世界数据集支持视觉漂移、异常检测与MLOps策略的深入研究。为促进二次分析,我们还提供基于卷积变分自编码器(CNN-VAEs)的自监督框架:针对每个摄像头节点及昼夜图像集分别训练模型。定义两种样本级漂移度量:相对质心漂移(捕捉潜在空间偏离基准季度),以及相对重建误差(衡量归一化图像域退化)。该数据集为评估长期模型稳定性、漂移感知学习与可部署视觉系统提供了真实、细粒度的基准。图像与结构化元数据以JPEG和CSV格式公开发布,支持可复现性与下游应用,如街灯监控、气象推断与城市场景理解。数据集可通过https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17781192 和 https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17859120 获取。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
We present a large-scale, longitudinal visual dataset of urban streetlights captured by 22 fixed-angle cameras deployed across Bristol, U.K., from 2021 to 2025. The dataset contains over 526,000 images, collected hourly under diverse lighting, weather, and seasonal conditions. Each image is accompanied by rich metadata, including timestamps, GPS coordinates, and device identifiers. This unique real-world dataset enables detailed investigation of visual drift, anomaly detection, and MLOps strategies in smart city deployments. To promtoe seconardary analysis, we additionally provide a self-supervised framework based on convolutional variational autoencoders (CNN-VAEs). Models are trained separately for each camera node and for day/night image sets. We define two per-sample drift metrics: relative centroid drift, capturing latent space deviation from a baseline quarter, and relative reconstruction error, measuring normalized image-domain degradation. This dataset provides a realistic, fine-grained benchmark for evaluating long-term model stability, drift-aware learning, and deployment-ready vision systems. The images and structured metadata are publicly released in JPEG and CSV formats, supporting reproducibility and downstream applications such as streetlight monitoring, weather inference, and urban scene understanding. The dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17781192 and https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17859120.
