Key features, fish were only labelled if key defining characteristics for species level identification were visible in the image, such as colouration or morphology. + +2. Orientation, fish directly facing toward or away from the camera were not labelled, as key features are often obscured making species level identification difficult. + +3. Depth, as fish move further away from the camera, ability to confidently identify reduces. Orientation combined with deteriorating light and turbidity makes species level identification difficult. Annotations were only made in clear conditions where the above criteria were also met. + +4. Obstruction, if a fish was obscured by debris, aquatic vegetation or other fish, bounding boxes are not overlapped or separated into two boxes. + #### Azure Deployment
