Data Management & Mobilisation / Feed

For the many community members who deal with enormous datasets, this group will be an invaluable resource to trade advice, discuss workflows and tools, and share what works for you.

Dan's comments about the need for technologists and conservationists to manage and share (properly annotated) data struck a chord with me, it was right at the end of the presentation.

I fired off a point into the chat "could your old background data be my background data?" or something similar, and it got me thinking...

(Firstly, sorry for clouding this issue with my simultaneous "Ian Tuna" joke)

In the context of using AI as described in EdgeImpulse example, lets say - audio.

Lets say Group A are trying to detect the roar of lions, and Group B are trying to detect the grunt of wild pigs, and lets imagine that is in roughly the same area of Africa.  I mean they could both send out teams to capture the sound of their target animal, and the sound of NOT their target animal, e.g everything else.

Well if "serengetti sounds" was a known audio track, then all you need is the unique sound of the beast in question, am I right?
