From the dive videos of the HAUV, SBIs were extracted every second. Each SBI features two parallel laser lines 30 cm away from each other. The camera used was a GoPro, the videos and pictures were taken perpendicularly to the seabed. The seabed images provide insights into the general composition of key species, higher systematic groups and ecological guilds. The images contain information on how benthic species are associated to each other. Transect files include individual images, whereas metadata of each image includes diving depth, date/time of transect. Geographical coordinates and time of individual images is unavailable, images have a resolution of 300dpi and a size of 9 to 13 MB.
