Standardising metadata for insect images from camera traps and machine learning output

Mapping InsectAI datasets to Camtrap DP

This repository is dedicated to testing the suggested modifications to Camtrap DP by the InsectAI community. We aim to evaluate these changes by mapping datasets to Camtrap DP.

How to contribute

This repository is open to contributions from the community. If you have an insectAI dataset that you would like to map to Camtrap DP, please follow the guidelines below.

1. Ask access to @sannegovaert to collaborate on this repo.
2. Create a branch for your project.
3. Map your data
4. Commit your changes and push to your branch. You don’t need to wait to commit until your finished.
5. Create a pull request to merge your changes into the main branch.

Mapping in r

IF you want to use r for your mapping, you can follow all the next steps.

1. Create a folder in src with the name of your project.
2. Copy the insectai_to_camtrapdp.Rmd file to your project folder.
3. Create a folder in data with the name of your project.
4. Copy your raw data to the raw folder.
5. Edit the insectai_to_camtrapdp.Rmd file to include your project-specific code.
6. Run the insectai_to_camtrapdp.Rmd file to generate the Camtrap DP files.

Mapping without r

Otherwise, you can add your test data in your preferred way. Please follow the repo structure as much as possible.
