Bambi - QGIS Integration QGIS 4 compatibility

A comprehensive QGIS plugin for detecting, tracking, and geo-referencing wildlife in aerial drone recordings (videos or still photos) from DJI Enterprise drones with thermal and/or RGB cameras. Features include: - Frame extraction and undistortion from drone videos (SRT timestamps) or photo collections (EXIF) - Animal detection using YOLO models (auto-downloaded from HuggingFace) - Multi-object tracking with built-in, BoxMOT, or geo-referenced backends; import of pre-computed TRex tracklets - Demographic classification of tracked animals: cross-modal RGB/thermal track matching, DINOv3 features, occlusion/species/sex classifiers aggregated per animal by vote, and a size-based juvenile flag (requires a Hugging Face token for the gated DINOv3 model) - Segmentation tool: SAM3 / SAM 3.1 on the extracted frames by text or clicked point prompts, per frame or tracked across a sequence, through the Roboflow API, transformers, or Meta's sam3 package; masks geo-referenced, added as layers and exported as GeoJSON - Geo-referencing of detections, tracks, and SAM3 segmentations onto a DEM (real-world UTM coordinates) - Flight route visualization and perpendicular distance sampling for transect-based surveys - Survey analytics: kernel-density heatmaps, line-transect distance-sampling density/abundance estimation (from detections or tracks), and transect-based population estimation (naive, bootstrap, zero-inflated negative binomial) - Per-frame camera field-of-view footprints and coverage areas - Georeferenced map products: per-frame GeoTIFFs, true orthomosaics, and ALFS light-field mosaics - DEM import: automatic download (Austria), GeoTIFF conversion, or flat surface meshes for aquatic surveys - Calibration wizards for camera intrinsics (single-camera SfM, stereo RGB+thermal) and per-flight pose corrections - Companion tools: result video creator, radiometric thermal image viewer (DJI Thermal SDK), randomized transect flight planner, and interactive map-canvas inspectors - Key-frame based labelling tool: review detections/tracks on extracted frames (thermal or RGB), draw and edit track bounding boxes with species/sex/age/occlusion classes, interpolate between key frames, and propagate boxes of one or several tracks across frames via DEM geo-referencing - Transect splitting tool: split a flight into named transects (frame ranges) on the extracted frames, with a flight-route overview map, flight-path length measurement and an "end after X metres" helper - Results stored in GeoPackages that carry their own meaning: every detection has an id the later steps refer to, user-defined fields travel through the whole pipeline, and each step records what it produced and what it invalidated - Export to COCO, YOLO, MOT, TRex tracklets, GeoJSON (animals or segmentations), Camtrap DP and Darwin Core Archive (GBIF publishing) - Several flights per QGIS project, each with its own target folder, configuration and layer group - Built-in dependency manager to install all required and optional packages from within QGIS All results are automatically added as styled layers to the QGIS project, grouped per flight.
