Swiss National Park Pioneers AI Wildlife Monitoring System

Groundbreaking artificial intelligence project in Swiss National Park reveals unprecedented insights into wild animal behavior through camera trap technology.

Key Takeaways

AI

Scientists from EPFL have launched a project called MammAlps to monitor wildlife using AI.
The project utilizes camera traps combined with artificial intelligence to identify individual animals and analyze their behavior.
Traditional observation methods and attached sensors are considered intrusive and can alter animal behavior.
Existing video datasets for wildlife AI training were previously lacking in quality and depth.
