We need your help to describe the behaviour of dolphins in video clips. This will help us build a library of dolphin behaviours.

Dolphin Spotting

This project uses **underwater** and **aerial** videos, analysed through **four workflows**.

- Two workflows are simple detection tasks that ask whether dolphins are **present or absent**: one underwater and one aerial. These help us identify when dolphins appear in the recordings.


- The other two workflows are **detailed annotation tasks**, shown after dolphin presence is confirmed. In these, volunteers describe dolphin **behaviour** and the **context** of the scene, again using underwater or aerial footage.


Underwater videos usually make dolphins easier to see, while aerial videos provide important information about the surrounding environment and human activity.
