Safety validation of automated driving functions is a major challenge that is partly tackled
by means of simulation-based testing. The virtual validation approach always entails the modeling
of automotive perception sensors and their environment. In the real world, these sensors are exposed
to adverse influences by environmental conditions like rain, fog, snow etc. Therefore, such influences
need to be reflected in the simulation models. In this publication, a novel data set is introduced.
This data set contains lidar data with synchronized reference measurements of weather conditions
from a stationary long-term experiment. Recorded weather conditions comprise fog, rain, snow
and direct sun light.
Next to the named funding projects, the dataset was also funded by VIVID, promoted by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research, based on a decision of the Deutsche Bundestag
