Imagine opening a map and instantly seeing every animal your drones have captured. With Animal Detect, wildlife teams can now explore their drone data on an interactive map that updates in real time. - Every GPS-tagged image becomes a data point - Can be shared - 100% traceability

Did you know you can zoom images to take a better look at your detections? 🔍👀 While working with drone footage, we often struggled to identify what animal are we looking at. So we added zooming support. How to use: mouse whell up/down, or pinch with 2 fingers on touchpads.

Did you know you can use Animal Detect on your phone? Not sure why, but you can. :^) It's a part of our strategy is to be omnipresent. Phone? Tablet? Old laptop? Ultra-wide screen? Watch? Smart microwave? Of course. jk, not the last two. Try it out and if you see some bugs -> please let us know!

You can now sort animals by detection confidence or similarity. 🐁 This feature was requested by our local university students, who use Animal Detect as part of their semester project. In their work, they wanted to sort all animals by confidence - from BEST to WEAKEST. Why not said we? Lets have it!

New friends, new insights, new ideas! 🥸 I had a chance to steal Sara Beery away for a chat from the stage (she was the guest speaker) of AI + Environment Summit Zurich. We discussed the state of AI in Wildlife conservation domain and where the leading research is going.

In my search for answers on what do the academic world values in wildlife conversation work I attended AI + Environment Summit in Zurich, Switzerland. The PhD-to-square-meter ratio was above 1. Woah. Did I get an answer to my question? Yes, absolutely.

Nothing lasts forever. Enjoy your time, be helpful to others, and contribute to the world. Rest in peace Jane Goodall. People like Jane remind me that life is not about bringing maximum value to shareholders, but about something greater. A sense of discovery. An exploration. A greater mission.

Animal Detecting Week 9 - TASMANIA 🦘 I always thought of this island as of something magical. So distant, so unreachable... So I was happy to stumble upon a Tasmanian dataset I could play with. From 400 images, animals detected on 374 images (93.5%), with 417 total animals & humans detected.

You can now delete detections in a project. You asked - we added. 😎 Not all detections are always useful. Sometimes you might look for a coyote, but there are too many seagulls cluttering your data. Now you can delete them all with one click (and typing DELETE for safety!).

Our front page got an update! 🦛 Now you can test if we can recognize your animal directly on the front page. Just choose your country & drag and drop an image. PS. Photo used is by Marc Mol, taken in South Luangwa National Park, Zambia 💚

It was refreshing to attend NetworkNature EU conference in Brussels this week. Normally I communicate a lot with people working "close to the source" - wildlife organizations and agencies overseeing nature areas. So it was new for me to meet people on the other end - policymakers alike.

Animal Detecting Week 8 🐾 European Mammals & birds with LoFi sounds for a sunny Friday. 🌆 After working with many African and American datasets I felt curious about how we would perform on home datasets - in Europe. So I run Animal Detect through this German dataset and the results are amazing.

Camera trap & drone image analysis has never been easier. Really. In Animal Detect we listen to your feedback very carefully! What you are hyped about, what you think is "meh", and everything in between. We have just upgraded species labeling experience to a new level. Now you can:

Classification just received a MASSIVE boost in performance. It is literally 5 times faster now. Processing 1000 images / 1GB used to take 10+ minutes. Now its under 2 minutes. We are on a hunt to customize and improve every single step of the process on Animal Detect.

You can now select and relabel many detections at once in Animal Detect. - Hold SHIFT + Click on image to select 1 image at a time - CTRL (or ⌘) + A to select all images in the current view PS. all the cats on the video were not really classified as 'goats' by AI, it is only for demonstration. :^)

This is so bizarre I can't believe it still exists. 🤯 It is legal in Denmark to drive/park your car on the sea shore. It feels absolutely outlandish and barbarian towards nature.

We added a new feature to Animal Detect - interactive map based on GPS tags from the uploaded images. Users can click on each animal detection pin and see the image. This will help large areas to track their animals and prepare report results. The maps can also be shared with others with a link.
