This code repository contains example scripts for camera trap animal detection and classification. Our container based approach to camera trap image processing is modular, easily scalable, fast to deploy and lowers system prerequisites. Developed by RZA, JCB and BWB.
The /examples directory contains command line scripts that can be run on an appropriate system. The scripts pull a Docker image from Docker Hub and then perform the processing on your camera trap image folder. For GPU support you need to use a current version of Linux or Windows 10/11.
The Docker images are automatically built and pushed to Docker Hub using GitHub Actions for CI/CD. We adhere to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 and maintain version consistency bewtween GitHub and Docker Hub tags.
The source code below is unecessary if you just want to use the images. You can simply pull them from Docker Hub and use or modify one of the example scripts.
This Docker image contains the MegaDetector models md_v4.1.0.pb, md_v5a.0.0.pt and md_v5b.0.0.pt and is based on PyTorch 1.11.0, CUDA 11.3 and CUDNN8. Additionally it has TensorFlow to support MD4.1 and GPU support.
This Docker image is used to snip and save detections from a MegaDetector output JSON file and the original camera trap images.
This Docker image is used to train an EfficientNetV2 model using the TensorFlow Object Detection API. It is based on TensorFlow, CUDA and CUDNN8. The container is configured to use a GPU if available.
This Docker image is used to predict the class of camera trap images using an EfficientNetV2 model. It is based on TensorFlow, CUDA and CUDNN8. The container is configured to use a GPU if available.
This Docker image is used to write the class of camera trap images to the EXIF metadata. This is useful for sorting images based on class in camertrap database programs like Camelot.
This Docker image is used to draw bounding boxes on camera trap images using detections from a MegaDetector output JSON file. Additionally it will sort the original camera trap images into folders based on the MegaDetector detection type (human, animal, vehicle, blank).
The base images are used to build the Docker images above. They are not intended to be used directly.
A Docker base image that include TensorFlow, CUDA and CUDNN. It is used for EfficientNetV2 training and inference.
A Docker base image to suppor the MegaDetector Docker image. It also supports mewc-snip and mewc-box which use the MegaDetector utility libraries.
These Docker images are intended to be used as a toolset for building infrastructure in the cloud. You need to clone the repository and build the images locally as the code is directly used for Terraform plans and Ansible playbooks.
A Docker image that contains Terraform, Ansible and OpenStack for Nectar Research Cloud infrastructure deployment. You will need to carefully read the README.md file in the repository to understand how to use this image.
