Automated Streams Analysis for Public Safety (ASAPS) Dataset (v0.75)

Metadata Updated: July 29, 2022

The ASAPS Dataset includes eight continuous hours of data from across a fictitious ASAPS City representative of a normal day in a small city. The dataset includes multiple data types - video, audio, text, sensor, social media. The video data was created from a series of staged events, and then synchronized and augmented with recorded audio, simulated data for sensor, text, and social media related to the variety of emergency events across the city. The dataset represents a geographic area of approximately 68 square blocks. All of the GPS coordinates represent a fictitious ___location which includes 390 buildings and parks, each with an identity/name, street address, and latitude/longitude ___location. The first-of-its-kind dataset combines video recordings of staged emergencies with scripted audio and textual public safety communications and simulated Computer Aided Dispatch and gunshot sensor data. It was constructed to represent a continuous eight-hour snapshot of the emergencies happening during the day in a small city and includes 45 time-synchronized data streams. No actual emergencies occur in the data and it includes only simulated data and audio and video recordings of consenting subjects who participated as actors in the staging of the data. The subjects agreed to their video and audio being recorded and distributed to support open research in automated emergency analysis in a formal data collection consent process. The ASAPS Dataset was created by the Lafayette Group INC under contract award #GS-23F-0134N on behalf of NIST PSCR. The data collection protocol was reviewed and approved in April 2020 by the New England Institutional Review Board (NEIRB) in accordance with 45 CFR 46, the Protection of Human Subjects and by the NIST Research Protections Office in accordance with 15 CFR 27.112, Review by Institution. The data is organized and annotated to be used for R&D in automated emergency event analysis and its use is restricted to the terms and conditions of the data use agreement. The ASAPS Dataset is available to Data Recipients by registering for an account via the ASAPS Dataset website (https://asapsdata.nist.gov).
