Dataset Card for Country211
Dataset Details
Dataset Description
The Country211 dataset is designed for country classification based on images. It was created to evaluate the geolocation capabilities of machine learning models. The dataset is a filtered subset of the YFCC100m dataset, consisting of images that have GPS coordinates corresponding to an ISO-3166 country code. The dataset is balanced, containing 150 training images, 50 validation images, and 100 test images for each of the 211 countries and territories.

Dataset Structure
Each sample in the dataset contains:
image: A variable-sized RGB image
label: An integer between 0 and 210, representing the country
Total images: 211 * (150 + 50 + 100) = 63,300
Classes: 211 (each corresponding to a country or territory)
Splits:
Train: 150 images per country (31,650 total)
Validation: 50 images per country (10,550 total)
Test: 100 images per country (21,100 total)
Image specs: Variable sizes, RGB
Example Usage
Below is a quick example of how to load this dataset via the Hugging Face Datasets library.
from datasets import load_dataset
# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("randall-lab/country211", split="train", trust_remote_code=True)
# dataset = load_dataset("randall-lab/country211", split="validation", trust_remote_code=True)
# dataset = load_dataset("randall-lab/country211", split="test", trust_remote_code=True)
# Access a sample from the dataset
example = dataset[0]
image = example["image"]
label = example["label"]
image.show() # Display the image
print(f"Label: {label}")
