Benchmark Maps

We present datasets of 2.5D elevation maps of planetary environment that were collected on Mt. Etna during the space-analogous ARCHES mission. In addition to the raw elevation maps, we provide cost maps that encode the traversibility of the terrain.

These datasets are meant to be used for bench-marking of path-planning algorithms in an unstructured planetary-analogue environment for mobile robots.

Cost map example
Ein Beispiel für eine 2,5D-Kostenkarte aus unseren Datensätzen. Die Kostenkarten repräsentieren die Befahrbarkeitskosten für einen planetaren Rover in einer unstrukturierten planeten-analogen Umgebung. Unter Verwendung dieser Kostenkarten können auch binäre Hinderniskarten erzeugt werden. Erstellungsdatum: September 2022
