As part of my thesis internship, I’m exploring ways to improve ecoSecrets – an open-access web application designed by Natural Solutions to support automated sensor monitoring (e.g., camera traps). The platform already offers tools for managing projects and study sites, and for extracting data from images. Natural Solutions now aim to take it a step further by integrating analysis and visualization tools directly into ecoSecrets.
That’s where you come in! If you currently use or have used tools to process your camera trap images and generate statistics or indicators, your input would be incredibly valuable.
I’ve created a short survey (5 - 8 minutes) to better understand your workflows and needs as users.

Please feel free to share this survey within your networks – especially with anyone working with camera trap data!
Thanks so much for your help!
