Steps to reproduce
Two thermal image camera models the AXIS Q1942-E 10 mm and AXIS Q1952-E 10 mm were used to collect the data from the roadside. Both sensors record videos with 30 FPS and have 640 x 480 pixels resolution. The images are decoded in 8-bit format, where 255 is assigned to the hottest and 0 to the coldest pixel. These cameras were installed at 4 locations. These 4 locations include 3 inner-city spots and 1 location on rural road. A self developed tool were used to create 3D bounding box annotations and class labels for every object of the classes: motorcyclist, car, bus, truck, pedestrian, bicyclist or e-scooter. Perspective Projection was used to receive the world coordinates in UTM-system.
