There's only one dataset we know of that uses the Marmot annotation format. It's quite obscure and more than a little bit opaque. But a user asked for it to be supported so we obliged!
Note: as with most custom format requests, Marmot is only supported on Roboflow's Pro Tier.
Below, learn the structure of Marmot XML.

</Page>With Roboflow supervision, an open source Python package with utilities for completing computer vision tasks, you can merge and split detections in Marmot XML. Read our dedicated guides to learn how to merge and split Marmot XML detections.
Below, see model architectures that require data in the Marmot XML format when training a new model.
On each page below, you can find links to our guides that show how to plot predictions from the model, and complete other common tasks like detecting small objects with the model.
