{"url":"/dataset/seaturtleid","name":"SeaTurtleID","full_name":null,"description_markdown":"**SeaTurtleID** is a public large-scale, long-span dataset with sea turtle photographs captured in the wild. The dataset is suitable for benchmarking re-identification methods and evaluating several other computer vision tasks. It consists of 7774 high-resolution photographs of 400 unique individuals collected within 12 years in 1081 encounters. Each photograph is accompanied by rich metadata, e.g., identity label, head segmentation mask, and encounter timestamp.\r\n\r\nSource: [SeaTurtleID: A novel long-span dataset highlighting the importance of timestamps in wildlife re-identification](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2211.10307v1.pdf)\r\n\r\nImage Source: [https://arxiv.org/pdf/2211.10307v1.pdf](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2211.10307v1.pdf)","description_withheld":null,"homepage":"https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/wildlifedatasets/seaturtleid","introduced_date":"2022-11-18","introduced_date_note":null,"introduced_by":{"paper":"/paper/seaturtleid-a-novel-long-span-dataset","title":"SeaTurtleID2022: A long-span dataset for reliable sea turtle re-identification","first_author":"Lukáš Adam","url":null},"license":null,"modalities":[{"name":"Images","url":"/datasets/modality/images"}],"tasks":[],"languages":[],"variants":["SeaTurtleID"],"data_loaders":[],"num_papers_in_archive":3,"source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28"},"benchmarks":[],"papers_with_a_benchmark_row":[],"syntology_totals":{"read_at":"2026-09-24T18:15:14+00:00","papers_with_samples":0,"samples_harvested":0,"samples_ran":0,"samples_unverified":0,"pointer_only_for_licence":0,"papers_with_no_sample_that_ran":0,"note":"the per-paper counts above, summed; not a rate"},"papers_note":"The archive never published its papers-using-dataset list; these are papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks."}
