bbox annotation format: Audacity Extended LabelTrack

[NickleDave]

I cannot find any public datasets using this format but want to document it as one that could be good to have: https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/importing_and_exporting_labels.html#Extended_format_with_frequency_ranges

Basically, a bounding box instead of segments

The fact there are none publicly available suggests it's not widely used.
Again, just documenting for future reference

In ecoacoustics, people use Raven as well as Audacity to annotate there audio files. I'm pretty sure there are plenty of private datasets with this kind of anotations. In our scikit-maad package, we added 2 examples. You can use it if you need. https://github.com/scikit-maad/scikit-maad/tree/production/data See my issue about this : https://github.com/vocalpy/crowsetta/issues/222

Excellent, thank you @shaupert @scikit-maad

An initial implementation + test data are in this comment: https://github.com/vocalpy/crowsetta/issues/222#issue-1587621330

Closing that issue as a duplicate of this but will start with that suggested implementation
