Efficiency

Accelerate image annotation with computer vision. Use MAIA or Magic SAM to tackle the ever growing volume of unannotated images in environmental monitoring and exploration.

Machine learning assisted image annotation

Collaboration

Create labels in your own hierarchical classification schemes or import species labels from the World Register of Marine Species. Labels can be edited, versioned and shared in collaboration with other researchers.
