Last year we announced Vantage AI as our newest Solution Partner, and we are proud to announce our first close collaboration: creating an algorithm that is able to detect species from different regions across the globe that are captured by a camera trap.
In this blog post, Mike Kraus and Richard Bartels describe step by step how image recognition is used to process camera trap information in an efficient, non-labour intensive manner and how this is being incorporated into our Wildlife Insights tool suite. Click here to read the full blog post.
To make this technology available to our Field Partners, the next step is to create a user-friendly app that can be integrated with the Focus Data Explorer. Developing this is expensive, that is why we have set up a crowdfunding campaign to raise the funds needed.
