Pod.Cast | Help listen for Orcas!

Team up with machine learning by listening and tagging Orca calls recorded from hydrophones deployed in the Salish Sea. Machine-generated predictions are shown as boxes with a confidence score above.
Your task is to refine these by deleting, edit/resizing or drawing new annotations. To listen, either click the small play button on each box or spacebar for the entire session. When done, hit submit and start the next session. If you aren't sure or want to load a new session, hit skip.

To learn what typical Orca calls sound/look like, check out the Orcasound Call Catalog. Your annotations are helping improve an automated detection system for the Puget Sound, as part of the open-source Orcasound Project.
