Datasets and Supporting Materials for the IPIN 2023 Competition Track 4 (Foot-Mounted IMU based Positioning, offsite-online)

This package contains the datasets and supplementary materials  used in the IPIN 2023 Competition.

Contents:
- IPIN2023_Track4_CallForCompetition_v2.2.pdf: Call for competition including the technical annex describing the competition

- 01-Logfiles: This folder contains 2 files for each Trials (Testing, Scoring01, Scoring02)
           - IPIN2023_T4_xxx.txt : data file containing ACCE, ROTA, MAGN, PRES, TEMP, GSBS, GOBS, POSI frames
           - IPIN2023_T4_xxx_gnss_ephem.nav : for trajectory estimation.
           
- 02-Supplementary_Materials: This folder contains the datasheet files of the different sensors, a static logfile of about 12 hours that can be used for sensors bias estimation (Allan Variance) and a logfile of about 1 minute that can be used to calibrate the magnetometer sensor (Magnetometer Calibration).

- 03-Evaluation: This folder contains the scripts used to calculate the competition metric, the 75th percentile on all evaluation points. It requires Matlab Mapping Toolbox. We also provide ground truth of the 2 scoring trials as 2 MAT and KML files. It contains samples of reported estimations and the corresponding results. Just run script_Eval_IPIN2023.mat
