## Dataset Summary

Real-world aerial scene understanding is limited by a lack of datasets that contain densely annotated images curated under a diverse set of conditions. 
Due to inherent challenges in obtaining such images in controlled real-world settings,
we present SkyScenes, a synthetic dataset of densely annotated aerial images captured from Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) perspectives. 
**SkyScenes** images are carefully curated from **CARLA** to comprehensively capture diversity across layout (urban and rural maps), weather conditions, times of day, pitch angles and altitudes with corresponding semantic, instance and depth annotations. 
**SkyScenes** features **33,600** images in total, which are spread across 8 towns, 5 weather and daytime conditions and 12 height and pitch variations.

    - Town02
    - Town03
    - Town04
    - Town05
    - Town06
    - Town07

- **Height and Pitch Variations of UAV Flight(Total 12):**
  - Height = 15m, Pitch = 0°
  - Height = 15m, Pitch = 45°
  - Height = 15m, Pitch = 60°
  - Height = 15m, Pitch = 90°
  - Height = 35m, Pitch = 0°
  - Height = 35m, Pitch = 45°
