 # Road Issues Detection Dataset
 
-## Overview
+## Dataset Summary
+
+This comprehensive dataset contains 9,660 high-resolution RGB images categorized for road infrastructure issues detection. The dataset focuses on identifying critical urban infrastructure problems including potholes, damaged roads, broken road signs, illegal parking violations, and environmental cleanliness issues. It has been specifically organized and curated for computer vision and machine learning applications in smart city infrastructure monitoring.
+
+## Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
+
+- **Image Classification**: Classify different types of road infrastructure issues
+- **Object Detection**: Detect and locate specific road problems within images
+- **Multi-label Classification**: Images may contain multiple types of issues
+- **Urban Infrastructure Monitoring**: Real-world application in smart city systems
+
+## Languages
 
-This dataset contains images categorized for road infrastructure issues detection, specifically focused on identifying potholes, damaged roads, broken road signs, and illegal parking violations. The dataset has been organized into different categories for computer vision and machine learning applications.
+The dataset primarily contains images with English text on road signs and infrastructure, though the visual nature makes it applicable across different linguistic contexts.
