Recognise nature with Naturalis AI
Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications can offer various solutions in helping measure and monitor biodiversity change.
Naturalis AI Nature services offer fast and customisable automatic species identification tailored to your organisational needs.
Solutions
For organisations with large amounts of biodiversity data, we developed solutions with expert validated input that allow reliable identification of animals, plants and fungi based on AI image (and sound) recognition.
With our Nature identification API (Application Programming Interface) and AI analyses for the DIOPSIS insect cameras, we support organisations to contribute to digital biodiversity monitoring at scale, involving citizen scientists and society at large.
Applications
AI-based automatic species identification facilitates biodiversity monitoring, engages active participation from citizen scientists, provides us insights in biodiversity decline and invasive alien species, and at the same time generates valuable research data that allow us to better protect our environment and combat climate change.
AI applications also help with nature and habitat conservation, nature capital assessment, control of threatened and/or dangerous species, agriculture management as well as tracking illegal trading of biological assets.
For companies and corporates, AI applications offer an objective way to measure, monitor and report on sustainability impact for the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD).
Services
We develop large-scale customised AI species identification models based on image and sound recognition, including algorithms combining multiple data sources that covers the most commonly encountered macro-organisms in Europe.
Extensive AI models are deployed hierarchically as an auto-scaling web service for six biodiversity portals in Europe and performs 30-50 million identifications/year, allowing citizen scientists and the interested public to identify flora and fauna using web interface and/or interactive mobile applications.
