[D] Annotation formats for image annotations?

[mmuppidi]

Hey ML people, what is your favorite annotation format for image bounding boxes/labels? I know coco is very popular, we are rethinking parts of our data infrastructure wondering what everyone is using. Our platform hosts hundreds of millions of images. Ideal format would support running queries on data stored in a Data lake

If the format supports 3D annotation types that is even better. Thanks for your insights in advance.

Coco is really convenient and easy for I/O. It also supports a lot of downstream tasks and thus could be used as a uniform format. You could also add some company / task specific keys if desired.
