## Unconstrained College Students ...
(PAGE UNDER DEVELOPMENT)
Unconstrained College Students (UCCS) is a dataset of long-range surveillance photos captured at University of Colorado Colorado Springs. According to the authors of two papers associated with the dataset, subjects were "photographed using a long-range high-resolution surveillance camera without their knowledge" [^funding_sb]. The images were captured using a Canon 7D digital camera fitted with a Sigma 800mm telephoto lens pointed out the window of an office.
The UCCS dataset was funded by ODNI (Office of Director of National Intelligence), IARPA (Intelligence Advance Research Projects Activity), ONR MURI Office of Naval Research and The Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative, Army SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research), SOCOM SBIR (Special Operations Command and Small Business Innovation Research), and the National Science Foundation.
The images in UCCS include students walking between classes on campus over 19 days in 2012 - 2013. The dates include:

The original Sapkota and Boult dataset, from which UCCS is derived, received funding from[^funding_sb]:
- ONR (Office of Naval Research) MURI (The Department of Defense Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative) grant N00014-08-1-0638
- Army SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) grant W15P7T-12-C-A210
- SOCOM (Special Operations Command) SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) grant H92222-07-P-0020
The more recent UCCS version of the dataset received funding from [^funding_uccs]:
- National Science Foundation Grant IIS-1320956
- ODNI (Office of Director of National Intelligence)
- IARPA (Intelligence Advance Research Projects Activity) R&D contract 2014-14071600012
### TODO
- add tabulator module for dates
- parse dates into CSV using Python
- get google image showing line of sight?
- fix up quote/citations
