Dataset Card for FranceCrops

Dataset Summary

FranceCrops is a satellite imagery time series dataset for crop classification in France.

Each sample in the dataset consists of:

• Input Features (x): 3D arrays of shape (100, 60, 12) in float16:
  • 100: number of timeseries sampled within an agricultural field
  • 60: temporal dimension (measurements every 5 days from 01/02/2022 to 30/11/2022)
  • 12: spectral bands from Sentinel-2 satellite
• Labels (y): Integer class labels (int16), one of 20 crop types

Splits

🚧 Work in Progress 🚧

• train: 20,000 samples (~3.4GB)

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset
# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("saget-antoine/francecrops", split="train")

# Example of accessing a single sample
sample = dataset[0]
x = sample["x"]  # Get the input features
y = sample["y"]  # Get the label

Typical usage with PyTorch:

import torch
from torch.utils.data import DataLoader
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("saget-antoine/francecrops", split="train").with_format("torch", columns=["x", "y"], dtype=torch.float16)

train_loader = DataLoader(dataset, batch_size=1024, shuffle=True, num_workers=8)

Dataset Creation

Source Data

🚧 Work in Progress 🚧

• Features: Sentinel-2 L2A satellite imagery extracted using GEE
• Labels: Crop type classification from the 2022French Registre Parcellaire Graphique (RPG)

Preprocessing

🚧 Work in Progress 🚧

• Remove clouds, shadows, and missing data time steps
• Temporal alignment
• Temporal interpolation when missing
