We will examine how to structure storage, metadata, access patterns, and quality controls so that mobility teams can treat perception datasets as first-class, versioned “infrastructure” assets. The session will walk through how to design a mobility data stack that connects object storage, labeling systems, simulation environments, and experiment tracking into a coherent, auditable pipeline.

What you’ll learn:

• Model the mobility data plane: Define schemas for camera, LiDAR, radar, and HD, and represent temporal windows, ego poses, and scenario groupings in a way that is queryable and stable under schema evolution.
• Build a versioned dataset catalog with FiftyOne: Use FiftyOne customized workspaces and views to represent canonical datasets, and integrate with your raw data sources. All while preserving lineage between raw logs, the curated data, and simulation inputs.
• Implement governance and access control on mobility data: Configure role-based access and auditable pipelines to enforce data residency constraints while encouraging multi-team collaboration across research, perception, and safety functions.
• Operationalize curation and scenario mining workflows: Use FiftyOne’s embeddings and labeling capabilities to surface rare events such as adverse weather and sensor anomalies. Assign review tasks, and codify “critical scenario” definitions as reproducible dataset views.
• Close the loop with evaluation and feedback signals: Connect FiftyOne to training and evaluation pipelines so that model failures feed back into dataset updates

By the end of the workshop, attendees will have a concrete mental model and reference architecture for treating mobility datasets as a governed, queryable, and continuously evolving layer in their stack.
