Field Robotics Workshop Challenge Information
The GOOSE 2D Fine-Grained Semantic Segmentation Challenge is a competition hosted in conjunction with the Workshop on Field Robotics at ICRA 2026 in Vienna, Austria. The challenge is based on the annotated image data of unstructured outdoor environments found in the GOOSE and GOOSE-Ex datasets. Participants are tasked with developing and testing models for 2D Semantic Segmentation of camera images taken from three different robotic platforms. The teams with the best-performing models will be awarded prizes and the opportunity to present their approach during the poster session of the Workshop on Field Robotics at ICRA 2026.
More information about how to participate in the challenge can be found in its Codabench Website.
The German Outdoor and Offroad Dataset (GOOSE) is a modern dataset specification and accompanying off-road datasets. The focus is on unstructured off-road environments as well as on a broad support for different platforms and applications in the fields of mobile robotics and deep learning.
This repository contains code to process and visualize data and to run benchmarks on different baseline methods. It is also used to track issues of the GOOSE and GOOSE-Ex datasets, the database, website, etc, so feel free to open an issue if anything is not working as expected.
The data structure and more in-depth information about the format can be found int the documentation. The data is divided into 3 splits: train, test and validation. Labeled data is available for train and validation splits.
It can be downloaded from our webpage.
In scripts you can find some sample scripts to directly download and unpack the 2D data.
Under the folder common some general configuration files and utils such as color maps can be found.
For more specific tools regarding training and data handling, have a look at the image_processing and pointcloud_processing subfolders.
