Antarctic Seafloor Annotated Imagery Database - Classification Catalog

Created 22/03/2026

Updated 17/04/2026

This Classification Catalog shows example images for all biotic labels used in developing the Antarctic Seafloor Annotated Imagery Database (AS-AID). This catalog represents a snapshot of the database at the time of publication of the associated data-paper. The labels used are based on the Australian Morphospecies Catalog, which is an extension of the CATAMI classification scheme. All underlying data are publicly available on Squidle+ (https://squidle.org).

Up to 16 randomly selected images are presented for each classification, alongside a table with the following information: • Found in campaigns: a list of all campaigns in AS-AID in which this organism has been detected • Total annotations: the total number of annotations for this label • VME-taxa: whether this label is identified as a CCAMLR Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem taxa
