To know how an ecosystem is doing, you first need to know what lives there and where it moves. That counting work is labour-intensive, and exactly the part that can be automated.
The counts and patterns are the evidence on which conservation managers base their choices: which species are declining, where protection is working and where it is not. The platform was developed with a Dutch life sciences university, as a research project: the interpretation stays with the ecologist.
Species recognition reaches an accuracy above 98 per cent. The work started in 2018 as the MIT Zuid feasibility project Intelligente Wildstand Monitor: EUR 62,400 in project costs, of which EUR 24,960 MIT funding. A reference is available on request.
We use Google Tag Manager to measure visits and Leadinfo to recognise which company is visiting. Neither loads unless you agree. If you choose essential only, the site works as normal and we measure nothing. If you arrived via an advertisement in ChatGPT, we also use the OpenAI measurement pixel to attribute conversions to that advertisement. Cookie statement · Privacy statement
