Developing Wildlife Insights.

The brief.

Wildlife Insights, a collaborative initiative involving partners like Conservation International, entrusted Vizzuality to create a scalable platform capable of managing vast camera trap datasets. By combining field expertise, cutting-edge technology, and advanced analytics, Wildlife Insights enables global sharing of wildlife data, automates species identification, and empowers data-driven conservation action to recover global wildlife populations.

Our role.

To ensure the growth of Wildlife Insights, we undertook the challenge of building a solid backend foundation. Employing NestJS for the main API and deploying it on a Kubernetes cluster hosted on Google Cloud, we established the core infrastructure. Integrating Google Cloud technologies further elevated the platform's performance—leveraging Airflow for data analysis pipelines, Google's AI Platform for computer vision, and cloud functions for process delegation. This orchestrated ecosystem guarantees optimal performance as Wildlife Insights' vast dataset continues to expand, empowering data-driven conservation on a global scale.

Delivered with impact.

Elevating conservation possibilities.

Wildlife Insights demonstrates our dedication to data-driven choices and battling biodiversity decline through innovation at the intersection of technology and conservation. By using AI and cloud technologies to automate processes, analyze data, and extract insights from images, we pushed the boundaries of how technology can aid in understanding and preserving wildlife. The solid foundation and scalable architecture set the stage for the platform's growth and its ongoing contribution to global wildlife conservation efforts.
