Abstract 

The ICRA conference is celebrating its 40th anniversary in Rotterdam in September 2024, with as highlight the Happy Birthday ICRA Party at the iconic Holland America Line Cruise Terminal. One month later the IROS conference will take place, which will include the Earth Rover Challenge. In this challenge open-world autonomous navigation models are studied truly open-world settings.

As part of the Earth Rover Challenge several real-world navigation sets in several cities world-wide, like Auckland, Australia and Wuhan, China. This dataset recorded in the Rotterdam, the Netherlands. The recording took place in front of the Holland America Line Cruise Terminal, before the festivities of the Happy Birthday ICRA Party start. The dataset is quite unique, because an asynchronous multithreading script has been used for the recording, which provided a higher frequency of reading out accelerometers than other data sets recorded with Earth Rovers.

The dataset contains three runs, which can also independently can be downloaded from:

 
The recording from the front camera of the Earth Rover in the last dataset is actually too big for this repository, so has to be downloaded directly from https://doi.org/10.21942/uva.27159765.v5
