BenchBot Operators
Species location map
Why
This important information is used in the pipeline to automatically label detection results and the resulting plant cutouts.
| Note |
|---|
It’s important that species locations stays consistent throughout the growing season. |
Who
BenchBot operators on the ground at each location
When
Once when pots are initially placed and anytime afterward if the location of species changes. The location of species (pots) should not change once the season starts, however; if species location changes, the pipeline dev group should be notified.
Pots within individual species groups can, and will likely move from day-to-day operations (see below about avoiding border drift). But species location should not change.
Where
A single map should include all benches/potting areas and should be made for each location.
Ideally, this map should only need to be created once and sent once to the the pipeline dev group.
How
Map
Drawing or use an excel spread sheet that clearly delineates the relative position of species in each potting area.
Avoid drifting species-species borders
Transition areas from one species to another should stay consistent. In another words, an imaginary line separating 2 species potting groups should not move or drift throughout the season from day-to-day operations.
BenchBot operators should place a small gap separating species groups. This gives some leeway for slight drift overtime while insuring species stay separated.
What
Identify
bench number
species name in USDA symbol
pot row number or barcode number
“0,0” origin for each bench
How Bench numbers and pot row numbers (if used) are named should not change for the duration of the season.

Various types of data are used and produced during processing. Full resolution images are the main data input and are processed to produce plant segments, or cutouts, various types of masks, and metadata products for both original images and cutouts. This section describes how this is data structured, details its contents, and documents Image and Cutout metadata at length.
