The GuidedSAM-Plume dataset targets the segmentation of volcanic ash plumes and clouds in real-world observational imagery.
It comprises 47 annotated time-series sequences, totaling 759 frames, collected using ground-based camera systems during field campaigns and during the monitoring of explosive volcanic eruptions. The sequences have a mean length of 16 frames and an average spatial resolution of 2996 × 1685 pixels.
The dataset covers a broad range of acquisition and environmental conditions, including varying viewing angles, illumination, occlusions, and weather, as well as diverse plume dynamics from early formation to fully developed structures.
Two annotation sources are provided, both produced by expert volcanologists: manual segmentations and segmentation masks generated using the GuidedSAM-Plume interactive annotation framework.
A single .zip file containing a folder for each sequence.
