Antarctic Seafloor Annotated Imagery Database - Images
This dataset contains images from 21 individual Antarctic research campaigns between 1985 and 2019, collated as part of the Antarctic Seafloor Annotated Imagery Database (AS-AID). A total of 632,252 expert annotations are associated with these seafloor images. This dataset is a static snapshot of the AS-AID images at the time of publication of the data descriptor. All images are also accessible from https://data.imas.utas.edu.au/imagery/IMAS_Antarctic/
The dataset contains images and associated tracklog metadata for each research campaign.

Resource lineage
- Statement
- Images have been collected using various different camera platforms which are described in detail in the individual voyage reports. The metadata here contains voyage (campaign) and deployment identifiers, longitudes and latitudes of the images as well as other recorded data such as deployment depth. A preprint of the manuscript that describes the database in full and how annotations are created can be found here: https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.02.16.528770
