Time- and cost-efficient analysis of plankton in microscopy images
We are a spin-off project at Fraunhofer IGD and developing an AI-based software that you can use to analyze your microscopy images for the assesment of aquatic ecosystems.
Features
Automated analysis of plankton
Discover how our powerful AI models can be used to analyze and measure plankton in microscopy images in a fraction of the time.
Classification
Description
Automated taxonomic identification of phytoplankton and zooplankton species in single images.
Benefits
Enables the automated analysis of images generated by in-situ microscopes. Can be used to count the number of plankton individuals of different species in a sample.
Detection
Description
Detection and taxonomic identification of phytoplankton and zooplankton in complex microscopy images with a variety of plankton species and individuals.
Benefits
Enables the automated analysis of microscopy images taken with standard laboratory microscopes. Can be used for counting and rough measurement of plankton individuals of different species in a sample.
Segmentation
Description
Segmentation and taxonomic identification of phytoplankton in complex microscopy images with a variety of plankton species and individuals.
Benefits
Enables the automated counting and pixel-accurate determination of geometric properties, including the biovolume of phytoplankton individuals of different species in a sample. Suitable for use with standard laboratory microscopes for the assessment of the status of water bodies according to the European Water Framework Directive (WFD).
Workflow
