Questions Re: Uploading Dataset with Annotations

[ddseddse]

I've installed CVAT following the instructions here and it seems to be working flawlessly. This is t he version installed:

Now I want to import a PASCAL VOC format dataset. My first issue is when following the instructions here, but in my Projects screen I do not get an "Import Dataset"option (or a "Backup Project" option for that matter). Here is what I see:

What do I need to do to get the Import option to show up?

Also, a second question. Under Tasks I have an option to import annotations and that leads to a file open dialog that is looking for a .zip file. What would the exacxt contents of that .zip file be for this purpose?

Thanks!

The answer to Question #2 appears to be "zip up all the annotation XML files together and upload". That works fine. I guess I should have tried that first.

I would still appreciate any help on answering question #1 above (how to get the Import Dataset option to appear).

Thanks.

Hi, you need to build images locally from develop branch with docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d --build

Cheers,

I am trying to import the "Detection_and_localization" dataset from this link. To the best of my knowledge, it is Pascal VOC compatible.

I've managed to upload all images to CVAT. I've also created a ZIP file with all corresponding XML annotation files. When trying to upload through Menu > Upload annotations > Import Format = Pascal VOC I get the error message as in the below picture:

The corresponding annotation file follows:

<annotation verified="no">
  <folder>block_001</folder>
  <filename>image_0000026_2020-02-05_13-21-21</filename>

Appreciate any advise on how to complete the task.

Thanks.
