Related repositories

Two earlier repositories preceded this one.

• Imageomics/naturelab is the public home of the field logs, the field collection protocols, the Google Earth site files, and the data-storage protocol. This repository links to it rather than duplicating them.
• Imageomics/wilds_multimodal_data was the internal working repository. It is preserved here on the legacy-wilds_multimodal_data branch: one folder per former branch, with the full commit history in the branch's ancestry. main is the curated metadata release.

The Milu-deer activity project

The camera-trap and acoustic analysis on the legacy branch belongs to a separate project by Bharath Pillai and Varun Viswapriyan on annotation-free verification of Milu (Père David's) deer activity, using deer calls and distance estimation. It has a workshop paper, Cross-Modal Corroboration for Annotation-Free Wildlife Monitoring, and a journal paper under review. That work uses its own labels and its own acoustic model; the holistic dataset documented here uses a substantially updated labeling protocol (see the camera-trap release note). The two are kept separate on purpose, and the numbers in this release should not be read as inputs to or outputs of that paper.

What was migrated

The sensor configurations (metadata/sensor_configurations.md), the documentation guidelines (guidelines/), the dataset cards, the defect inventory, the supplemental material, and the cross-modal coordination analysis (analysis/cross_modal_coordination/) are in main. Labeling pipelines, model experiments, and raw experiment outputs stay on the legacy branch.
