Underground Mining Shaft Survey – Multiple LiDAR and IMU Sensors Data Set

This paper provides a data set collected with an underground shaft mobile mapping system equipped with rotated Velodyne VLP-16, Velodyne Ultra Puck VLP-32c, Livox Tele-15, and IMU Xsens MTi-30. The ground truth data was acquired with a geodetic survey including 15 ground control points and 6 Faro Focus 3D Terrestrial Laser Scanner stations of a total 273,784,932 of 3D measurement points. The aim of the paper is to describe the data set of a mining shaft. Obtained mobile mapping data can be the basis for detailed analyzes of the technical condition of the shaft. This data set provides an end-user case study of realistic applications in mobile mapping technology. It provides ground truth data, mobile mapping data and software tools for manipulation and visualization. The project is released and maintained at https://michalpelka.github.io/mine-mapping-dataset/.
