DCLDE 2013 NOAA NEFSC North Atlantic Right Whale Annotations

Metadata Updated: June 16, 2023

This dataset is a compilation of 1 week of acoustic data, collected in the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary within the Western North Atlantic Ocean. The dataset was manually annotated for the presence of North Atlantic right whale upcalls and was originally part of the 2013 DCLDE (Detection, Classification, Localization, and Density Estimation) conference datasets, and was recently re-analyzed so all log files were from the same site (site 10, corresponds to channel 10 in multichannel data files) for the entire week of data. Each day of data was manually browsed in Raven 1.5, and all North Atlantic right whale upcalls were logged (for multichannel data, only one channel was analyzed and logged: the channel logged is indicated in the corresponding csv file). In the "Detection_Confidence" field, a definite upcall is marked as "Detected"; Possible or unknown detections ( i.e. a call could not be definitely attributed to a North Atlantic right whale), is marked as "Possibly_Detected". Acoustic data and analysis provided by NOAA Northeast Fisheries Science Center's Passive Acoustic Research group; upcall logs annotated by Nicole Pegg.
