Brief description
This data set contains the imagery collected on the Marine National Facility (MNF) RV Investigator voyage IN2024_V04, titled ‘East Australian Current canyons survey’. The voyage took place between 07/06/2024 and 03/07/2024 (AEST), departing from Sydney and ending in Brisbane, collecting imagery of benthic habitats together with oceanographic data targeting two canyons – Solitary and Richmond canyon – and the adjacent slope.Instrument(s) used to collect this data:
MNF Deep Towed camera (DTC)
Datasets include:
Video (oblique forward view)
Stereo stills (oblique forward view)
Navigational data
Lineage: The imagery was collected using the MNF Deep Towed camera (DTC) system that simultaneously collects oblique forward-facing video (camera: SVY) and stereo still images (cameras SCP (port) and SCS (starboard)). Calibration of the stereo cameras was done in SEAGIS software and can be made available upon request.
The imagery was processed with Marimba v1.0.0. [https://github.com/csiro-fair/marimba]
File naming convention: CameraPlatform_Camera_Survey_Deployment_YYYYMMDDTHHMMSSZ_image#
GIS location of the camera system, and depth (as positive 'altitude') was added to the EXIF data of still images. In addition, camera location data at 1-second intervals for video and by image-pair for stills are provided in .csv format.
