# HubEdgeLoc Dataset
[![Paper](https://img.shields.io/badge/Paper-IMWUT-blue.svg)](#)
This repository contains the official dataset for the IMWUT paper **"HubEdgeLoc: Edge-Based Temporally Robust Real-Time Localization for Mobile Assets in Transport Hubs."**
HubEdgeLoc is a longitudinal Wi-Fi received signal strength (RSS) dataset collected for evaluating indoor localization methods and their robustness to environmental and access-point changes over time.
## Dataset Highlights
- **Longitudinal data:** Five monthly evaluation sets are provided for the airport and two for the campus.
- **Two scenarios:** The dataset covers a large, dynamic airport terminal and a more structured university campus environment.
- **Multiple fingerprint representations:** Each scenario includes the original observations, a traditional representation, and the compact Score/Top-K representation used by HubEdgeLoc.

```
Each `MonthX` directory follows the same two-file organization as `Init`: an `RSS_dat*.csv` file containing Wi-Fi observations and a `postest.csv` file containing local-coordinate data.
## Fingerprint Database
The `Fingerprint Database` directory contains the reference data used to construct the radio map in three forms:
- **Original data:** `RSSOridat.csv` stores the grouped Wi-Fi RSS observations.
- **Traditional representation:** `Traditional Process Dat.csv` stores the conventional high-dimensional fingerprint representation.
- **Score/Top-K representation:** `Macnumtrain.csv` stores the AP identifier mapping, `postrain.csv` stores reference coordinates, the `TopKnumMactrain.csv` or `ToPKnumMactrain.csv` file stores the selected AP indices, and `TopKRSStrain.csv` stores their RSS values.
## Temporal Evaluation Sets
- **`Init/`:** Data collected immediately after construction of the fingerprint database.
- **`Month1/` to `MonthX/`:** Independent data collected in subsequent months for evaluating temporal robustness. The airport contains Month1 through Month5, while the campus contains Month1 and Month2.
The MAC-like values in the published files are privacy-preserving virtual identifiers rather than the original hardware addresses.
