Sevengill Sharks – New Project Onboarding

[simonjpierce]

Hi there,

I’m assisting Jemma Bezuidenhout from the University of Otago in New Zealand to onboard her project on sevengill sharks (Notorynchus cepedianus) to Sharkbook.ai.

She’s working with baited underwater video images, so she is using top-down photos like this as the ID area:

I have manually annotated some initial trial encounters for her:

Sharkbook: Wildbook for Sharks

Sharkbook: Wildbook for Sharks

Sharkbook: Wildbook for Sharks

Sharkbook: Wildbook for Sharks

Sharkbook: Wildbook for Sharks (note for this one – I’ve added the annotation correctly, twice, but the green box doesn’t show correctly through the Encounter interface. Not sure what’s going on there.)

Can we ‘activate’ the matching algorithms for this species so she can test the system? Are there any other steps that need to be completed?

Thanks!
Simon (and Jemma).

Hi @simonjpierce

This species is already configured for identification. I started matches on your annotations and see match results coming back for this viewpoint.

Sharkbook: Wildbook for Sharks (note for this one – I’ve added the annotation correctly, twice, but the green box doesn’t show correctly through the Encounter interface. Not sure what’s going on there.)

This is a bug that was fixed in Wildbook 10.9. This update hasn’t rolled out to Sharkbook yet because the new encounter page design didn’t include a link to spot mapping. I believe Sharkbook will get the 10.10 update when it is ready for release.
