Description
Biodiversity – the fabric of life that makes our own existence possible – is declining worldwide at an unprecedented rate. The Netherlands is even one of the forerunners exhibiting this dramatic decline. In recent years, this concern has moved from niche to mainstream. In this interactive session, researchers and practitioners exchange ideas and experiences, discuss initiatives, promising solutions, and share inspiring visions on how ICT can contribute to bend this downward curve.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Biodiversity monitoring with remote sensing, IoT, other sensors
- Citizen science tools and experiences
- Biodiversity data management, platforms, bias, protocols and standards
- AI models for species identification, conversational interfaces, scenario simulation etc.
- Digital systems for human-wildlife interaction
- ICT-powered solutions for agriculture and nature-inclusive planning
- Education tools and gamification to raise awareness
- The use of immersive technology to give nature a voice
