Step 4: Reviewing and Tagging Images
The process of reviewing and tagging photos will vary depending on your image dataset and project goals. The steps below outline a generalized workflow for tagging images.
-
Start the Timelapse software. (This is the
Timelapse.exe
file in your Timelapse directory.) -
Load your template:
- Go to File → Load template, images, and videos.
- Navigate to the root folder of your image dataset and select the Timelapse template.
- This will load your images into Timelapse.
-
Review and tag images:
- Move through each image, identifying all animals present.
- If more than one species appears in an image or video, use Edit → Duplicate this record (
Ctrl+D
). - This will create an additional entry in the database, allowing you to annotate each species separately.
