Aerial Image Dataset for Construction (AIDCON)

We present an open aerial image dataset named the Aerial Image Dataset for Construction (AIDCON) which includes construction machines. Images were collected via UAV bird’s-eye view. An intense amount of work has been performed to annotate construction vehicles at the pixel level. The dataset is open to the public for future contributions of researchers.

  • 2155 images collected by UAVs
  • 9563 construction machines
  • 30 construction job sites (excavation, reinforced concrete, transportation, steel structures etc.), 47 construction machine parking area, 3 mining 
  • Period 2015-2023
  • Altitude ranging from ~10 to ~150 meters
  • 9 categories: Dump truck, excavator, backhoe loader, wheel loader, compactor, dozer, grader, car, other
