Seatizen Atlas image dataset

Seatizen Atlas Dataset This repository contains the resources and tools for accessing and utilizing the annotated images within the Seatizen Atlas dataset, as described in the paper "Seatizen Atlas: a collaborative dataset of underwater and aerial marine imagery". Download the Dataset This annotated dataset is part of a bigger dataset composed of lebeled and unlabeled images. To access informations about the whole dataset, please visit the Zenodo repository and follow the download instructions provided. Scientific Publication If you use this dataset in your research, kindly cite the paper: @article{seatizen-atlas,author = {Matteo Contini and Victor Illien and Mohan Julien and Mervyn Ravitchandirane and Victor Russias and others},title = {Seatizen Atlas: a collaborative dataset of underwater and aerial marine imagery},journal = {Scientific Data},year = {2024},} For detailed information about the dataset and experimental results, please refer to the previous paper. Overview The Seatizen Atlas dataset includes 14,492 multilabel and 1,200 instance segmentation annotated images. These images are useful for training and evaluating AI models for marine biodiversity research. The annotations follow standards from the Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network (GCRMN). Annotation Details Annotation Types: Multilabel Convention: Identifies all observed classes in an image. Instance Segmentation: Highlights contours of each instance for each class.
