A Brazilian native bee (Tetragonisca angustula) dataset for computer vision.

ABSTRACT

Jataí is a pollinator of some crops; therefore, its sustainable management guarantees quality in the ecosystem services provided and implementation in precision agriculture. We acquired videos of natural and artificial hives in urban and rural environments with a camera positioned at the hive entrance. In this way, we obtained videos of the entrance of several colonies for multiple bee tracking and removed images from the videos for bee detectors. This data, their respective labels, and metadata make up the dataset. The dataset displays potential for utilization in computer vision tasks such as comparative studies of deep learning models. They can also integrate intelligent monitoring systems for natural and artificial hives.
