From here, lots a user can be done:

  1. “download” Download Field batches

  2. “copy” Copy Semifield batches

  3. Open new screens

  4. Launch RawTherapee to create color profiles

  5. Send batches into their respective pipelines

  6. Check available batches

  7. Check/Crosscheck # of images, jpgs, arws, pp3s, etc.

It can be easy to get mixed up when working on Semifield and Field batches. Mix-ups will lead to errors and frustrations, so it is important to stay organized, work slowly, and sit down knowing what to focus on in this preprocessing session. This takes time and practice. Don’t forget to take breaks.

4.1 The Semifield

An area of partially controlled plant growth, yielding higher individual plant image count using the BenchBot. Contains white markers with black QR Codes and a black background. Filled with Comprised of black pots, potting soil and plants (depending on what growth stage they are in), target species and non-target species.

Semifield batches are usually larger than Field batches.

  • Filling out each column respectively is important

  • Hiding Developed batches' rows helps keep organized

  • Color coded format also helps keep organized

    • Downloaded - Field batch has been brought over to local user

    • Downloading - field batch is in the process of being brought to local user

    • Copied - Semifield batch has been brought over to local user

    • Copying - Semifield batch is in the process of being brought to local user

    • Processed Profiled - Batch has been opened within RawTherapee and settings have been toggled appropriately

    • Processing - Batch has been sent into it’s respective pipeline

    • Redo - Must redownload/copy batch again, adjust profile again, then send back into pipeline

    • Revisit - Something seems to have gone wrong in the pipeline. Errors have been given. Must investigate. Image count does not match up, no storage remains, etc.

    • Developed - Batch has been sent through pipeline successfully. Image count matches
