Deep Learning Indaba 2019:

Snapshot Serengeti Hackathon

​Description

Can AI help wildlife conservation? What can you create that will help wildlife conservation? In the Serengeti Wildlife Conservation Hackathon, you will have access to thousands of geo-located, time-stamped and labelled images from more than 200 camera traps in the Serengeti. You'd be able to plot the migration of wildebeest, learn from the data which animals are nocturnal, and build computer vision models to spot zebras and many other species. But can you do more...?
