Urb3DCD-cls

Notes on the Dataset

  • In addition to per-point change labels, the majority change per point cloud is specified through the folder structure.
  • Some point clouds contain very few points (even only one point in some cases). For our cases, we only included point clouds with more than 10 points (excluding 15 scenes).
