Abstract

The Fish4Knowledge database is unique in the amount of video analysis information it contains. Because of this, the Fish4Knowledge project decided to make this data as available as possible to the rest of the world. The database is organized as a relation datastore, which can also be accessed through an RDF schema that is linked to the Linked Open Data Cloud. Both schemas are summarized here to explain the data acquired in the project and how this data is organized. Because of the large amount of data, downloading the entire database obtained by this project seems to be impossible. However, the original user interface of the project can display summary information of the database. Information in a more raw format can also be obtain from our website, where we provide both the video and the automatic analysis of fish observed in each video in a readable format (CSV: Comma-Separated Values). This allows future researchers to both use this research and also go beyond the research performed in the Fish4Knowledge project. This data is of particular interest to researchers in Marine Ecology and Image Processing/Computer Vision.
