# TD 02: Urban Surface Textures

This dataset contains multi-photo texture captures in outdoor urban scenes — many focusing on the ground and the others are walls.  Each set has different photos that showcase texture variety, making them ideal for training a domain-specific image generator!

Overall information about this dataset:

* **Format** — JPEG-XL, lossless RGB
* **Resolution** — 4032 × 2268
* **Device** — mobile camera
* **Technique** — hand-held
* **Orientation** — landscape
* **Author**: Alex J. Champandard
* **Configurations**: 4K, 2K (default), 1K

To load the medium- and high-resolution images of the dataset, you'll need to install `jxlpy` from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/jxlpy/) with `pip install jxlpy`:

```python
# Recommended use, JXL at high-quality.
from jxlpy import JXLImagePlugin
from datasets import load_dataset
d = load_dataset('texturedesign/td02_urban-surface-textures', 'JXL@4K', num_proc=4)

print(len(d['train']), len(d['test']))
```

The lowest-resolution images are available as PNG with a regular installation of `pillow`:

```python
# Alternative use, PNG at low-quality.
from datasets import load_dataset
d = load_dataset('texturedesign/td02_urban-surface-textures', 'PNG@1K', num_proc=4)

# EXAMPLE: Discard all other sets except Set #1.
dataset = dataset.filter(lambda s: s['set'] == 1)
# EXAMPLE: Only keep images with index 0 and 2.
dataset = dataset.select([0, 2])
```

Use built-in dataset `filter()` and `select()` to narrow down the loaded dataset for training, or to ease with development.
