Image Safari Crop Weed Segmentation Crop and weed segmentation of field photographs from the Image Safari project, a large crop image collection from sites across sub-Saharan Africa. QED annotators outlined every crop plant and weed in 2,114 smartphone images of 16 crops (100-200 images per crop) in Roboflow, labelling each polygon as crop, broadleaf weed or narrowleaf weed (plus a handful of fruit/grain outlines). Each row has the image, a semantic mask (0 = background, then… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/Project-AgML/image_safari_crop_weed_segmentation.
Image Safari Crop Weed Segmentation
Crop and weed segmentation of field photographs from the Image Safari project, a large crop image collection from sites across sub-Saharan Africa. QED annotators outlined every crop plant and weed in 2,114 smartphone images of 16 crops (100-200 images per crop) in Roboflow, labelling each polygon as crop, broadleaf weed or narrowleaf weed (plus a handful of fruit/grain outlines). Each row has the image, a semantic mask (0 = background, then the class ids), per-object bounding boxes and classes, the crop, the Roboflow annotation batch, and the original per-image COCO annotation file verbatim in coco_json (instance polygons, original category names). Images that the source stored with an EXIF rotation are written upright so they line up with the annotations; all others keep their original bytes. The dataset contains 2,114 images with 50,688 bounding box annotations across 5 categories.
This dataset is indexed on https://project-agml.github.io/ as part of the AgML python library.
