-UnConstrained College Students (UCCS) is a dataset of long-range surveillance photos captured at University of Colorado Colorado Springs developed primarily for research and development of "face detection and recognition research towards surveillance applications"[^uccs_vast]. According to the authors of [two](https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Unconstrained-Face-Detection-and-Open-Set-Face-G%C3%BCnther-Hu/d4f1eb008eb80595bcfdac368e23ae9754e1e745) [papers](https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Large-scale-unconstrained-open-set-face-database-Sapkota-Boult/07fcbae86f7a3ad3ea1cf95178459ee9eaf77cb1) associated with the dataset, over 1,700 students and pedestrians were "photographed using a long-range high-resolution surveillance camera without their knowledge".[^funding_uccs] This analysis examines the [UCCS dataset](http://vast.uccs.edu/Opensetface/) contents of the [dataset](), its funding sources, timestamp data, and information from publicly available research project citations.

The UCCS dataset includes over 1,700 unique identities, most of which are students walking to and from class. In 2018, it was the "largest surveillance [face recognition] benchmark in the public domain."[^surv_face_qmul] The photos were taken during the spring semesters of 2012 &ndash; 2013 on the West Lawn of the University of Colorado Colorado Springs campus. The photographs were timed to capture students during breaks between their scheduled classes in the morning and afternoon during Monday through Thursday. "For example, a student taking Monday-Wednesday classes at 12:30 PM will show up in the camera on almost every Monday and Wednesday."[^sapkota_boult].
