This project developed two types of workflows to prepare benthic imagery for use in CoralNet. The first workflow is called QuadrantRecon, which uses AI to identify quadrats in benthic photos and automatically crop the images to the dimensions of the quadrat:
The second workflow is the Orthomosaic Tiler, which subsets large orthomosaic images that can be processed in CoralNet. The tiler is a script that can automatically subset images based on a shapefile, by pixel count, or by field dimensions for georeferenced orthomosaics.
