File checksums
For ensuring the integrity of the results obtained with this dataset (and associated replicability), it would be nice to be able to ensure that all objects have downloaded successfully.
I have at that end looked for something along the lines of an MD5, SHA1, or CRC digest (or similar) in the metadata, but if it exists I have not managed to find it.
Would it be possible to provide these as part of the metadata of the dataset in some form?
For Objaverse 1.0, I don't think this is necessary, as we host the files, and the files will not change.
Moreover, I first download the objects to <file.glb>.tmp, and then move the file to <file.glb>, so there should never be partial file downloads.
For Objaverse-XL, I'm providing the SHA256 of each object, since the dataset is distributed with links. So, I'll likely make it available for Objaverse 1.0 too pretty soon :)
For Objaverse-XL, I've now added sha256 to each object. Check out the Objaverse-XL API :)
