Brief description

The dataset comprises photographic images of seabird breeding colonies from cameras at multiple breeding sites across east Antarctic. Once deployed, the cameras operate continuously throughout the year and over multiple years but are programmed to take photographs on different schedules depending on the seabird species. The species include Adelie penguins, emperor penguins, Southern fulmars, Antarctic petrels, Cape petrels and Southern giant petrels. The cameras were positioned to include approximately 10-50 nests in the field of view. Photographs are taken frequently during the breeding season (1-10 photographs per day from October to March) and infrequently during the non-breeding season (1 photograph per week from March to October). Photographs are named by location, date and time (but not species).

The first cameras were deployed in November 2005 and the last camera was deployed in January 2012. Image acquisition is ongoing.
