This group is home to the protected area management tools that bring data collection, analysis, and reporting together to enable frontline conservation work in real-time. These integrated systems include many tools and topics related to other community groups, so if you're interested in this space make sure to check out our Sensors and Connectivity groups as well.
Resources for Getting Started:
- Watch the recording of our virtual meetup on Networked Sensors for Security and Human-Wildlife Conflict Prevention, including talks from WWF, SmartParks, and Sensing Clues.
- Check out this Introduction to SMART on our YouTube channel.
- Hear about the work Wildlife Protection Solutions is doing in this space.
- Watch Ted Schmidt's lunchtime lecture on Tech Readiness and Protected Area Management Tools.
- For a marine perspective, watch Max Schofield's Tech Tutors episode: How do I use open access remote sensing data to monitor fishing?
