AI-Assisted Salmon Counting from Underwater Fence Camera Footage

This system uses computer vision AI to automatically detect and count salmon by species from underwater video footage collected at fish fence monitoring sites. It is being developed by Fisheries and Oceans Canada to reduce the manual effort required by scientists who currently review hours of footage by hand. No personal information is involved, and the AI use is disclosed to users. The system is currently under development and not yet in production.
