Data From: Forabot: Automated Planktic Foraminifera Isolation and Imaging

Physical inspection and sorting of foraminifera is a necessity in many
research labs, as foraminifera serve as paleoenvironmental and
chronostratigraphic indicators. In order to gain counts of species from
samples, analyze chemical compositions, or extract morphological
properties of foraminifera, research labs require human effort and time
handling and sorting these microscopic fossils. The presented information
supports Forabot, an open-source system that can physically manipulate
individual foraminifera for imaging and isolation with minimal human
interaction. The associated data, codebase, and documentation support
building a Forabot and confirming results related to processing raw image
data, error detection results, and proof of concept deep classification
network.
