Create a project
Open Projects and create a new one, giving it a name that describes what you’re detecting (for example, Cable glands). Everything that follows — annotation, dataset versions, training, models — lives inside this project.
The Projects page — each card shows a project's images, batches, and models.
Bring your data in
Most images arrive automatically from your edge devices — see Edge data collection for how that works and how to move a batch into your project. You can also use Upload Data to add images from your computer.How a batch moves through your project
Once a batch is in your project, it appears on the Annotate board and moves through three stages:- Unassigned — in the project, not yet labeled
- Annotating — being labeled
- Dataset — labeled and added to the working dataset
Independently of that stage, every batch has a status —
collecting → complete — tracking upload progress. A batch auto-completes once it’s full or goes idle.Next steps
Annotate your images
Label the batch you just assigned with bounding boxes and classes.
