GrAco, is a dataset that includes both ground and aerial views. The main characteristics of our dataset are as follows:
- Multimodal-Heterogeneous data: An available and completely public dataset for C-SLAM research. It includes multi-modal data (inertial measurement unit (IMU), cameras, Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), and Global Positioning System (GPS)) in large-scale urban scenes collected by a fleet of ground and aerial vehicles.
- High precision: sensors are synchronized with millisecond-level and well calibrated. Centimeter-level ground truth localization obtained from RTK GNSS is provided.
- Loop closures between robots: Encounters among robots are designed during data collection, providing useful scenarios to the C-SLAM research.

We provide data in rosbag file format (ROS1 and ROS2 format), and sift out six ground sequences and eight aerialsequences. In addition, we provide a relatively small sample sequence for ground and aerial respectively. Here are topics (ROS1 format) that each bag has.
We provided a total of 6 ground sequences and 8 air sequences. Acquisition equipment and sequences are shown in the corresponding pictures. The duration and length of each sequence are shown below.
