Field surveys have long been used to identify and count species – a fundamental requirement in managing natural resources and conserving biodiversity. The problem is that field surveys are expensive and time consuming. With advancements in technology, AI models can be developed to automate this process.

AI has the potential to significantly increase speed, and decrease costs, associated with identifying and counting species. However, the models first need to be ground-truthed to prove they work accurately, and more efficiently, than traditional human-based methods. Our team at Wild Search develops and tests AI solutions for more efficient identification and counting of species.
