21 consecutive days of aerial drone footage document wild olive baboons (Papio anubis) in Laikipia, Kenya. The dataset, created by imageomics, follows three troops during morning and evening movements to and from sleeping sites across diverse environments. It was last updated on February 4, 2026.
Use Cases
Train object detection models based on aerial footage of baboon troops.
Develop automated behavior recognition systems based on movement sequences described in the dataset.
Analyze primate movement ecology based on data collected across diverse terrains like rivers and sleeping trees.
Benchmark tracking algorithms for small, moving targets in natural, cluttered environments.
Strengths
Data was collected over 21 consecutive days, providing a continuous temporal sequence.
Footage covers diverse natural environments, including sleeping trees and rivers.
Dataset explicitly tracks three distinct troops during specific behavioral periods (morning/evening movements).
