Moveapps: EMAC23 Coding Challenge

Motivated by having been named a Conservation Tech Award grantee in 2022, we are launching the EMAC23 coding challenge to Equip MoveApps for Conservation.

Pick one of five use cases related to pressing conservation challenges, use recommended datasets and develop creative App code using R or Python. Fill in our Registration form, initialise your App on MoveApps and submit a functioning version by 31 May 2023.

Developers of the 10 best Apps will be invited to join the EMAC23 workshop at the Max-Planck Institute of Animal Behavior in Germany, fully paid by our funds (provided by AI2’s EarthRanger and the Centre for the Advanced Study of Collective Behaviour). Help us spread the word. We look forward to meeting you!

If you have any questions, please contact us directly or join this discussion!
