Add new species

Hi @jason & @anastasia - Not to be pushy but I just wondered if there might be a sense of when this request might be able to be implemented? We have a lot of enthusiastic anticipation building amongst our users for this functionality.

thanks!

Hi @ACWadmin1

Striped hyena has been added. I am looking at the other species for what the most appropriate, cross-applied detector might be.

Thanks,
Jason

@ACWadmin1 Serval support has been added to ACW, cross-applying the cheetah detector model and using HotSpotter for matching.

This is great news, @jason, thank you so much!

Quick question for you - when adding a manual annotation, I assume the IA class will show “cheetah” in the dropdown, rather than serval, correct? I just want to be sure to give users a heads up.

It should say “serval”.

Hello everyone,

Sorry to jump in. I want to try the serval idneitification within ACW, when I fill the spreadsheet I’ve used Encounter.genus = Leptailurus and Encounter.specificEpithet = serval. Is that the correct way to import images of serval in ACW ?

Hi @rhorion - yes, that’s correct for the species fields in the bulk import for servals. Please let me know how you do!

best
Maureen
