An automated work-flow for pinniped surveys: A new tool for monitoring population dynamics

Published in Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution

Overview of the automated work-flow for wildlife surveys, from drone flights to image analysis. Drones are used to collect hundreds of images that are converted into orthomosaics. Thereafter, animals are identified by machine learning (ML) and their body sizes measured.
