Parameters only
Processed calibration parameters are reported, but raw calibration data is not reported.
Notes
cameras.txt supplies intrinsics; underwater calibration uses dome-port corrective lenses and second-order radial distortion.
Known or intentional limitations
Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.
Navigation is missing for 3178 images from 2015.
Navigation can have metre-scale offsets between visits.
Reference poses are SfM estimates with method-dependent evaluation bias.
Appearance changes include topography, ecology, water optics and recording equipment.

- 2015, 2016 and 2018 configuration. Video capture was 25 fps; released input images were extracted every 3 seconds, then manually filtered and navigation overlays inpainted. The rate is a nominal extraction cadence. Two different cameras were used across the dives; this record is a year-scoped configuration, not an assertion of physical count.
