WildObserve™

The smarter way to work through camera-trap images.

Start labeling. WildObserve™ learns as you go and pre-labels your images.

Built for biologists

Your work teaches the model on YOUR computer.

Draw boxes and label animals. As you work, WildObserve™ learns from every annotation and carries that knowledge through the rest of your dataset. New images arrive pre-labeled; check the results and make corrections when needed.

Continuous model improvement

Bring your field knowledge to the first images. WildObserve™ learns from your annotations.

Images remain private

Images and their metadata don't leave your computer.

What WildObserve™ does

Turn camera-trap folders into data ready for analysis.

WildObserve™ is a desktop app that turns folders of camera-trap images into reviewed data that's ready for analysis.

  • Finds what’s in each image

    It marks animals, people, and vehicles, and flags images that look empty.

  • Suggests the species

    Suggestions start from SpeciesNet and get better as your Project Model learns from your labels.

  • Makes review fast

    Images are grouped into capture events, so you can name a whole sequence at once. You can filter by site, camera, date, or species, and record counts, sex, life stage, and behavior.

  • Estimates occupancy and abundance

    From your reviewed images, it estimates site occupancy while accounting for detection probability. It can use site covariates you import, estimates their effects on occupancy and detection, and draws the results as plots you can save.

  • Watches for new images

    Point it at a folder and it processes new images as they arrive. It can also send email alerts when a species you care about shows up.

  • Exports your data

    It exports to CSV, Camtrap DP, Wildlife Insights, COCO, YOLO, and MegaDetector formats.
