This repository contains data and models used in the study entitled, "Large-area automatic detection of shoreline stranded marine debris using deep learning". This study can be accessed as an open access publication at the following location: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jag.2023.103515.

The data set is comprised of 1,587 images (512 pixels x 512 pixels) which contains 10,703 individual bounding box labels of marine debris objects. The imagery was collected over the State of Hawai'i in 2015 at 2 centimeter resolution (ground spacing distance).

The classification scheme consists of 8 labeled classes: unidentified object, processed wood, metal, vessel, net/cloth, buoy, tire, and line fragments.
