Habitat Mapping Camera (HABCAM)

Description

This dataset entails imagery collected using the HabCam towed underwater vehicle and annotated data on objects or habitats in the images and notes on image qualities. Most HabCam images and data are collected as part of the NEFSC sea scallop survey but the vehicle is occasionally used for other surveys. For each survey, a subset of images are selected and manually annotated for the presence of target species. The PostgreSQL database contains basic image metadata (date, time, latitude, longitude, depth, etc.) as well as the data from the manual annotations. Eventually, other software-derived data products will be added including bottom rugosity and substrate composition.
