Sample dataset: ovitrap sticks pictures and observed egg count

This dataset consists of 300 ovitrap sticks pictures that contain at least one Aedes aegypty egg. The pictures were taken with an iPhone 7 mobile phone and were used to assess the performance of a mosquito egg counter algorithm and application (https://ovitrap-monitor.gulich.unc.edu.ar/). The ovitraps are part of a weekly surveillance program carried out in the city of Córdoba (Argentina) by the Health Ministry authorities. This dataset is a sample obtained between December 2021 and March 2022. We also include a text file with the code of the ovitraps and the number of eggs counted by a technician under magnifying glasses (i.e., observed counts).
