LifeWatch observatory data: phytoplankton annotated image library by FlowCam imaging for the Belgian part of the North Sea. Citable as data publication Lagaisse, Rune, R.; Amadei Martinez, Luz, L.; Decrop, Wout, W.; Deneudt, Klaas, K.; Muyle, Julie, J.; Mortelmans, Jonas, J.; Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ): Belgium; (2024): LifeWatch observatory data: phytoplankton annotated image library by FlowCam imaging for the Belgian part of the North Sea. Marine Data Archive. https://doi.org/10.14284/680 Contact: Lagaisse, Rune ; Availability:  This dataset is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.Description In the framework of the Lifewatch marine observatory a number of fixed stations in the Belgian Part of the North Sea (BPNS) are sampled for phytoplankton monitoring. Samples are processed using a VS-4 FlowCAM model at 4X magnification, size range imaged is 55-300µm. The identification of the image data is done with the use of a classifier and followed by a manual validation step. These dataset comprises the full annotated image dataset which can be sampled for training of convolutional neural networks.
