Early Forest Fire Detection

Democratize open and low-tech solutions for fighting wildfires, for the benefit of the ecosystems and the citizens.

Wild Salmon Migration Monitoring

The project monitors wild salmon migration to ensure the number passing through meets state regulations, addressing threats from human activities like fisheries and dams.

Forest Elephants Passive Acoustic Monitoring

Conservation efforts struggle to monitor forest elephants in dense rainforests, with acoustic monitoring providing a promising solution via accurate, user-friendly detection systems that aid in population monitoring and anti-poaching efforts while mitigating human-elephant conflicts.

Monitoring Smolt Salmon Migration with Sonar

An innovative use of sonar imagery to monitor and analyze the migration patterns of smolt salmon as they journey from freshwater to the ocean

Wadden Sea Seal Monitoring

Automated seal population monitoring system using AI to count, classify, and identify individual seals from aerial imagery in the Wadden Sea.

Trout Identification

Non-invasive technology for monitoring trout populations using computer vision to accurately identify individual fish.

CTO - ReefSupport

I am very excited for what is ahead, there is so much potential in the work that's been done. Your hard work and passion have really shone through!

Thijs Suijten

Co-founder & CTO - HackThePlanet

They really helped us by training a YOLOv8 model for our system to prevent human-bear-conflicts. He thinks along well, knows what he is talking about and is a nice person to work with!

Melanie Clapham

Director & Conservation Scientist - The BearID Project

There is definitely a want and need from the conservation community to work with people like you, with your expertise, as the technical side to this type of development is often the barrier.
