This dataset consists of annotated high-resolution aerial imagery of roof shapes/geometries in Bonn, Germany, in the Ultralytics YOLO instance segmentation dataset format. Aerial imagery was sourced from OpenAerialMap, specifically from the Maxar Open Data Program. Roof shape labels and building outlines were sourced from OpenStreetMap. Images and labels are split into training, validation, and test sets, meant for future machine learning models to be trained upon, for both building segmentation and roof shape/geometry classification.

The dataset is intended for applications such as informing studies on solar capacity estimation, urban morphology, 3D modeling, risk assessments, and other related fields. There are seven roof shape types: gabled, flat, skillion, hipped, gambrel, half-hipped, pyramidal, and mansard.

Note: The data is in a .zip due to file upload limits. Please find a more detailed dataset description in the README.md
