We've recently been working on a structural overhaul of CoralNet's computer vision backend. In the process, we've re-evaluated a couple of finer details of how point annotations work on CoralNet. Depending on how you use CoralNet to get your work done, those details may affect you.
it is now 8 years or so since we started working on CoralNet. While the intent has always been for the project to be open-source, we have not felt ready to actually share the code. However, as the code has matured, and the project evolved, we finally feel ready to open up the source code to the public. So we did. Today!
It's tempting for site developers like us to spend all our time working on shiny new site features, but we haven't necessarily done the best job of communicating how to use CoralNet's existing features. So we're rolling out a couple of updates in that regard.
We've just launched this development blog for CoralNet! From now on, we'll use this blog to introduce new site features, significant site changes, or other CoralNet related news.
