Hello, could you please elaborate on what the purpose of this project is? Thanks a lot :)

Lukas

We manufacture the DOC AI Cam. It's a thermal camera, so particularly good for nocturnal animals. It comes with a 4G modem. It might meet your needs?

Hi @Ebennitt, we do have a working solution that works with all our OpenCollar devices. We connect to sub skin implants and then send and store those readings using Bluetooth, LoRaWAN and/or Iridium satellite. We can have a quick online meeting if you like to show this. Works great!

Hi @Ebennitt ,

I have a similar interest for the use of implantable heart rate loggers with remote data access capabilities. Have you found any solutions?

Thanks,

Courtney

This camera trap survey addresses the crucial need for a unified and comprehensive solution to improve data reliability and standardize monitoring techniques in wildlife research. Well done !

This survey on camera trap use is a valuable effort to improve data quality and consistency in wildlife monitoring. Looking forward to the results and how they will help shape best practices and future research. Great initiative!

Hi Jody,

Thanks for posting this question. Here are a couple of recommendations and ideas:

• Pay. They should be paying you, not the other way around. I wouldn't recommend any internship that requires a fee to participate. You possess highly relevant and valuable technical skills, and organizations or businesses should compensate you accordingly, even as a student. I suggest looking elsewhere for organizations that need talented individuals to help solve problems for them.
• Sources. Jobsingis has been listing internships lately, as have several UN agencies on UN jobs. Go to https://www.jobingis.com. You could also ask folks directly here or on other listservs such as SCGIS. LinkedIn would be another place to search for or ask about potential internships.

Happy to repost anything on Linkedin for you and good luck!

Vance

p.s. https://environmentjob.co.uk/jobs has internships searchable for any location, not just UK.

Ritika, 

All the best! I hope someone provides a more substantive answer! 

I have also graduated with masters in AI and ML recently. Difference being I am at the end of my IT career. I am looking for a career switch to biodiversity, wildlife conservation, sustainability or climate change. 

I am trying to do my best to do modern job search. Just warming up to it. LinkedIn, posting relevant posts, being consistent. Virtual networking. In person networking. Being a soon to be fresh graduate, you have access to a huge student networking and academic circle. Keep hitting them consistently and I am sure you will find something. 

Share the good news when it happens. :)

Nice!

Thought I'd mention that Wildlife Security Innovations will have a booth there, demonstrating our new multi-camera, local AI camera trap that supports miniature high resolution thermal modules. I will be bringing these along.

Hi

This is great! 

So just to double check - there is no way to join online? I would love to be part of this conference. 

Thanks, Els van Lavieren

Hi @iainmcnicol , welcome to WILDLABS! Thanks for posting this on here. I have shared with my colleagues at Fauna & Flora who have some experience (especially with the deforestation alerts) and could maybe provide feedback as well. We also have a page on 'The Inventory' where we're asking people to review various data products, tools, platforms etc including one for Global Forest Watch. As you can see not many reviews currently so it would be great (if possible by anonymising responses etc.) to get the information from your survey and translate this into something we could add to 'The Inventory' for the wider community. Let me know your thoughts on this!

Also is there a closing date for the survey?

Thanks for the heads up, Adrien. I've put my birdwatching on hold but will reboot it again this summer and start using eBird.

My first thought was that these were bird photos and eBird would automatically populate your checklist, but now I see these are habitat photos! That is very cool ... eBiome! From the website:

Habitat photos hold tremendous promise for improving bird occurrence models and understanding long-term changes to habitat conditions. We encourage users to document habitats during their visits and continue tracking changes over time. Tagging observed species in habitat photos may help reveal important connections between birds and their environments. These can also offer finer-scale insights that improve our approaches to assessing habitats, which currently relies on satellite imagery.

Soundscape recordings hold similar promise, capturing the broader soundscape of a site and how it may change. They will also play a key role in training Merlin Sound ID to recognize individual species within busy dawn choruses and environmental recordings.
