What sets us apart is our high-resolution dataset captured in chaotic urban traffic dynamics in India, addressing the unique challenges of heterogeneous vehicle types and non-lane discipline.
New_TimeStamp - Timesteps for each vehicle (seconds)
Vehicle_ID - Vehicle identifier
Vehicle_class - Type of vehicle (0-tw, 1-car, 2-3w, 3-lcv, 4-hcv)
Length - Vehicle length (meters)
Width - Vehicle width (meters)
Long_smooth - Smooth longitudinal position (meters)
v_smooth - Smooth velocity (m/s)
a_smooth - Smooth acceleration (m/s²)
Latright_smooth - Smooth lateral position (meters)
vy_smooth - Smooth lateral velocity (m/s)
ay_smooth - Smooth lateral acceleration (m/s²)
