V2X Large-Range And Sequential Datasets ​

Last updated: 2026-05-09

Large-range and sequential V2X datasets extend cooperative perception from isolated frames at a single intersection to multi-agent, multi-sensor, temporally consistent scenes. V2XScenes, V2XPnP Sequential, UrbanIng-V2X, V2X-Real, and related datasets are especially relevant to airport autonomy because fixed infrastructure can observe around occlusions and beyond the ego vehicle's range.

Dataset And Task Definitions ​

TaskWhat is evaluated
Cooperative 3D object detectionWhether fusing vehicle and infrastructure sensors improves 3D boxes.
Cooperative trackingWhether object IDs remain consistent across frames and sensor handoffs.
Large-range roadside perceptionWhether infrastructure extends range beyond the ego vehicle and through occlusion.
Sequential perceptionWhether models use temporal context rather than independent frames.
Prediction / forecastingWhether trajectories can be forecast from cooperative history and map context.
Collaboration-mode comparisonVehicle-centric, infrastructure-centric, V2V, V2I, I2I, and full V2X modes.

V2XScenes emphasizes large-range, challenging-condition vehicle-infrastructure perception. V2XPnP emphasizes spatio-temporal fusion for perception and prediction. UrbanIng-V2X emphasizes multi-intersection diversity. V2X-Real emphasizes real-world multi-agent breadth across collaboration modes.

The most useful datasets for airside design are those with fixed infrastructure and sequence-level identity, because aircraft stands and apron roads are dominated by occlusion, long-range approach, and handoff between viewpoints.


Metrics ​

MetricUse
3D mAP / AP by IoUDetection quality for cooperative boxes.
NDS-style detection metricsBalanced detection score where used by the benchmark.
AMOTA / AMOTP or tracking-metric variantsTracking accuracy and localization over time.
ID switches / fragmentationWhether cooperative handoff breaks object identity.
Range-sliced APMeasures infrastructure value at long range.
Occlusion-sliced APMeasures whether cooperation actually solves blind spots.
Mode deltaDifference between vehicle-only, infrastructure-only, V2V, V2I, I2I, and full fusion.
Latency/bandwidth-aware scoreNeeded when transmitted features or boxes have deployment constraints.

For airside work, add clearance-specific metrics: missed actor inside the swept path, missed actor under aircraft envelope, handoff delay at stand entry, and false-clear in occluded pushback zones.


Failure Modes ​

  • Calibration errors between fixed infrastructure and vehicle sensors create ghost boxes or shifted tracks.
  • Time synchronization errors are amplified in multi-agent fusion, especially for moving vehicles and pedestrians.
  • Infrastructure-heavy datasets can overstate performance if the deployment cannot install equivalent sensor coverage.
  • Sequential labels may hide dropped-frame or packet-delay behavior unless communication is simulated separately.
  • Large-range detection may improve vehicle recall while still missing low-profile objects close to the ego vehicle.
  • Tracking IDs can break when an object moves between infrastructure fields of view.
  • Public-road V2X classes do not cover aircraft, tugs, belt loaders, dollies, ULDs, cones, chocks, hoses, and FOD.
  • Weather and night coverage varies widely by dataset and should not be assumed from "real-world" alone.

AV, Indoor, Outdoor, And Airside Relevance ​

EnvironmentFitNotes
Public-road AVStrongThese are built for cooperative driving perception and prediction.
Airport airsideStrong architecture proxyFixed infrastructure, controlled network, and repeated routes make V2X especially practical.
Indoor logisticsModerateMulti-agent and fixed-camera principles transfer, but sensors/maps differ.
Outdoor industrial sitesStrongSimilar intersections, yards, and occluded equipment corridors.
Long-range safety monitoringStrongInfrastructure can observe beyond ego line of sight.

Airports may be easier than public roads in one respect: the operator can decide where to place infrastructure sensors and can mandate network participation. They are harder in another respect: aircraft geometry, stand equipment, GSE, reflective surfaces, and operating rules are outside public-road datasets.


Validation And Data-Engine Use ​

  1. Use V2X-Real and V2XPnP to compare collaboration modes before designing an airport sensor topology.
  2. Use V2XScenes to study large-range handoff, condition labels, and cooperative tracking under challenging traffic.
  3. Use UrbanIng-V2X and CoopScenes to stress multi-site calibration, synchronization, and OpenCOOD-style data conversion.
  4. Use TruckV2X when the target fleet includes articulated trucks, trailers, long GSE, or other large occluders whose geometry is missing from light-vehicle V2X datasets.
  5. Build an airport dataset with fixed stand cameras/LiDAR/radar, vehicle sensors, synchronized clocks, maps, and unique IDs across stands.
  6. Keep vehicle-only, infrastructure-only, and fused outputs in logs; the data engine needs to know which source found each object.
  7. Mine disagreement cases: infrastructure sees an object the vehicle misses, vehicle sees an object infrastructure misses, and fusion suppresses a correct single-agent detection.
  8. Add communication replay with latency, packet drop, stale transforms, and degraded collaborator trust before using V2X outputs in a safety argument.
