Each log was photographed several times with different camera orientations during an initial shooting session. For more than half of the logs, additional photos were taken at least 3 weeks after the first photo session. Cross-sections were segmented on all the images using the PointRend convolutional neural network. Spatial calibration was carried out by a specific algorithm using a checkerboard pattern present in each image. This image database was created with the aim of developing algorithms for the biometric traceability of logs, involving artificial intelligence approaches that require large databases. But other applications are also possible, such as the automatic extraction of information on the size and quality of logs.\u00a0The Biomtrace database is available at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.57745\/9DBCL4\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.57745\/9DBCL4<\/a>, and associated metadata are available at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/metadata-afs.nancy.inra.fr\/geonetwork\/srv\/fre\/catalog.search#\/metadata\/feda0a0e-041a-4190-9a73-5159b10ff0f0\">https:\/\/metadata-afs.nancy.inra.fr\/geonetwork\/srv\/fre\/catalog.search#\/metadata\/feda0a0e-041a-4190-9a73-5159b10ff0f0<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong><br \/>\nImage analysis; RGB images; Oak; Segmentation; Biometric traceability; Tree log identification<\/p>\n<p><strong>Publication<\/strong><br \/>\nLonguetaud, F., Mothe, F., Martinetto, D.\u00a0<i>et al.<\/i>\u00a0Traceability of oak (<i>Quercus petraea<\/i>\u00a0(Matt.)
