# M4Heights: Benchmark Dataset for Building Height Estimation

## 📻 Overview
This is the official dataset repository for M4Heights dataset, a multi-modal, multi-resolution, and multi-temporal dataset designed for building height estimation.
The dataset contains approximately 1 million images comprising time series of Sentinel-1 SAR and Sentinel-2 MSI satellite data, high-resolution aerial orthophotos, and high-quality building height reference maps. 
Additionally, M4Heights provides the largest associated multi-image super-resolution dataset to enhance height estimation accuracy. 
Our open-source dataset supports a range of modeling approaches, offering extensibility to new geographic regions and advancing the development of DL models for building height estimation.
