Automated extraction of right whale morphometric data from drone aerial photographs
Aerial photogrammetry is a popular non‐invasive method for measuring marine mammal body size, body morphometrics, and body condition, but processing large datasets efficiently remains challenging. We developed a machine learning algorithm using Mask R‐CNN models to automatically measure body morphometrics of southern right whales from aerial ...
