+# OpenPCDet on Modal
+
+This is a guide to running PCDet on [Modal](https://modal.com/), a platform for running machine learning workflows on the cloud.
+
+In this example we will train a pointpillar model on the nuScenes mini dataset. Credit to [ies0411](https://github.com/ies0411) who contributed the dockerfile in https://github.com/open-mmlab/OpenPCDet/pull/1513.
+
+## Install modal
+
+* `pip install modal`
+* `modal setup`
+
+See https://modal.com/docs/guide for more information.
+
+## Prepare data
+
+* Download the nuScenes mini dataset
+* Create shared Modal volume: `modal volume create nuscenes`.
+* Optionally: delete all image and radar folders to speed up the next step.
+* Upload data to the volume: `cd path-to-downloaded-data`, `modal volume put nuscenes v1.0-mini`.
+
+## Format the data
+
+Build the nuScenes `infos` used by OpenPCDet. This is a one-time operation.
+
+* `modal run setup_nuscenes.py`
+
+## Train the model
+
+* `modal run train_pp.py`
