Training Website for recognizing Epizootic Shell Disease (ESD)
The Spring 2018 NE Groundfish Survey, leg4, was spent collecting images of the American lobster that could be processed int 3D models of the lobster carapace. Specimens of ESD were sought for imaging as well as normal and other cuticle aberrations that can be confused with ESD and be counted as false positives of ESD. The images were processed with software Photoscan producing movies of the rotatin carapace allowing an observer to visually estimate the percent of the carapace surface involved in ESD lesions.
