Abstract
Vehicle trajectory data are invaluable for driving behaviour and traffic flow modelling studies, especially at the microscopic level. However, existing public vehicle trajectory datasets only provide data with inherent errors and lack the corresponding ground truth. This study presents a comprehensive vehicle trajectory dataset obtained using both drone and high-precision Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver technologies with an error of less than 5 cm. The dataset contains 70 complete trajectories with a total of 10,840 data points and an average length of 48.4 m. This includes 27 left-turn trajectories, 27 through trajectories and 16 right-turn trajectories. The trajectories collected by the centimetre-level precision GNSS receiver can be regarded as the ground truth of the trajectories extracted by the drone video. Researchers can use these two trajectory datasets to analyse driving behaviour at interactive scenarios, validate and calibrate microscopic traffic flow models, and validate trajectory reconstruction methods.
