## Dataset download
To download nuScenes you need to go to the [Download page](https://www.nuscenes.org/download), 
create an account and agree to the nuScenes [Terms of Use](https://www.nuscenes.org/terms-of-use).
After logging in you will see multiple archives. 
For the devkit to work you will need to download *all* archives.
Please unpack the archives to the `/data/sets/nuscenes` folder \*without\* overwriting folders that occur in multiple archives.
Eventually you should have the following folder structure:
```
/data/sets/nuscenes
    samples	-	Sensor data for keyframes.
    sweeps	-	Sensor data for intermediate frames.
    maps	-	Folder for all map files: rasterized .png images and vectorized .json files.
    v1.0-*	-	JSON tables that include all the meta data and annotations. Each split (trainval, test, mini) is provided in a separate folder.
```
If you want to use another folder, specify the `dataroot` parameter of the NuScenes class (see tutorial).

## Map expansion
In July 2019 we published a map expansion pack with 11 semantic layers (crosswalk, sidewalk, traffic lights, stop lines, lanes, etc.).
To install this expansion, please follow these steps:
- Download the expansion pack from the [Download page](https://www.nuscenes.org/download),
- Move the four .json files to your nuScenes maps folder (e.g. `/data/sets/nuscenes/maps`).
- Get the latest version of the nuscenes-devkit.
- If you already have a previous version of the devkit, update the pip requirements (see [details](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/setup/installation.md)): `pip install -r setup/requirements.txt`

## Devkit setup
The devkit is tested for Python 3.6 and Python 3.7.
To install Python, please check [here](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/setup/installation.md#install-python).

Our devkit is available and can be installed via [pip](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/) :
```
pip install nuscenes-devkit
```
For an advanced installation, see [installation](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/setup/installation.md) for detailed instructions.

## Getting started
Please follow these steps to make yourself familiar with the nuScenes dataset:
- Read the [dataset description](https://www.nuscenes.org/overview).
- [Explore](https://www.nuscenes.org/explore/scene-0011/0) the lidar viewer and videos.
- [Download](https://www.nuscenes.org/download) the dataset. 
- Get the [nuscenes-devkit code](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit).
- Read the [online tutorial](https://www.nuscenes.org/tutorial) or run it yourself using:
```
jupyter notebook $HOME/nuscenes-devkit/python-sdk/tutorial.ipynb
```
- Read the [nuScenes paper](https://www.nuscenes.org/publications) for a detailed analysis of the dataset.
- Run the [map expansion tutorial](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/python-sdk/nuscenes/map_expansion/map_demo.ipynb).
- Take a look at the [experimental scripts](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/tree/master/python-sdk/nuscenes/scripts).
- For instructions related to the object detection task (results format, classes and evaluation metrics), please refer to [this readme](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/python-sdk/nuscenes/eval/detection/README.md).
- See the [database schema](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/schema.md) and [annotator instructions](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/instructions.md).
- See the [FAQs](https://github.com/nutonomy/nuscenes-devkit/blob/master/faqs.md).
