Images of two standard crude oils collected using a fluorescent camera device to train and optimize a machine learning model for real-time oil spill concentration assessment collected from November 7, 2023, to July 8, 2024

The data are a set of fluorescent images that were generated to support the development of a machine learning model. The approach combines fluorescence imaging, deep learning, a mobile application, and a data management system for automated and real-time oil spill assessment. The dataset is comprised of 1,530 fluorescence images from two distinct oil types, a napthalenic crude oil (NACO) and an aromatic-napthalenic crude oil (ANCO). The oil is diluted in hexane and the images represent concentrations ranging from 0 to 500 mg/L. The data are presented as JPEG files in two zip folders (one for each oil type) as well as a CSV file that describes the type and concentration of the oil photographed in each image. These images were used to train and evaluate a machine learning tool comprised of convolutional neural network architecture for feature extraction coupled with a custom regression model.
