How biodiverse are our landscapes, and how quickly is this changing?
These seemingly simple questions are often difficult to answer in practice without substantial effort. Bio-O-Ton therefore takes a new approach: we combine audio recordings from citizen-science projects such as Dawn Chorus with high-resolution satellite data and analyze them using modern machine learning methods. At the core of the project are three research questions:
- How can biodiversity be classified across taxa and in an application-oriented way?
- Can AI methods, particularly machine learning approaches, successfully perform this classification using citizen-science audio recordings and satellite imagery?
- How can the continuous integration of governmental practice into method development be designed and implemented as a co-creation process?
