> The SEAMAPD21 dataset was originally assembled to support early adaptation of machine learning. It has grown considerably since then. The latest version can now be accessed via the [NOAA Open Data Dissemination (NODD) program](https://console.cloud.google.com/storage/browser/nmfs_odp_sefsc/PEMD/Gulf%20of%20Mexico%20Reef%20Fish%20Annotated%20Library/For_Training;tab=objects?pageState=(%22StorageObjectListTable%22:(%22f%22:%22%255B%255D%22))&prefix=&forceOnObjectsSortingFiltering=false) and includes original videos, annotation files, and extracted images.

Here we present the first large-scale, fine-grained reef fish dataset from the Gulf of Mexico - the Southeast Area Monitoring and Assessment Program Dataset 2021 (SEAMAPD21).

The CSV files are **[VIAME](https://www.viametoolkit.org/) CSV** files: system default comma separated value [detection file format](https://viame.readthedocs.io/en/latest/section_links/detection_file_conversions.html).

There can be as many class, score pairs as necessary (*e.g.*, fields 12 and 13, 14 and 15, *etc.*). In the case of tracks, which may span multiple lines and thus have multiple probabilities per line, the probabilities from the last state in the track should be treated as the aggregate probability for the track and it’s okay for prior states to have no probability to prevent respecifying it.
