AIDERV2 (Aerial Image Dataset for Emergency Response Applications (version 2))

The dataset contains aerial images containing three commonly occurring natural disasters earthquake/collapsed buildings, flood, wildfire/fire, and a normal class; do not reflect any disaster. It consist of 167723 aerial images divided into 4 classes. The dataset is an extension of the AIDER dataset (Aerial Image Dataset for Emergency Response Applications).
