Abstract: The selected car is a commercial vehicle (VW Transporter van) with a 5-cylinder diesel engine. The engine speed is relatively low, varying between 1500-2500 rpm. The van was driven in typical city conditions in low traffic. The data streams are included in .mat file, titled with the location of each data segments. There are 7 columns of data that represent: time (in seconds), x-axis raw data (in mV), y-axis raw data (in mV), z-axis raw data (in mV), x-axis acceleration (in g), y-axis acceleration (in g), and z-axis acceleration (in g). Features: a) Data starts at 11.5 seconds, and ends at 310.7 seconds b) Engine in neutral at a traffic light, 216.5 - 223.5 seconds c) Straight road section, high speed 235 - 280 seconds
