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!

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.

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!).

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.

We made a free online tool to analyze single images for wildlife community.
It works extremely simple - drop an image, get animal (or human/vehicles) detected/labelled in seconds.
