Abstract:

To effectively manage the growing population of invasive deer in Australia, adequate monitoring techniques are essential. Traditional methods of detecting and monitoring deer such as scat surveys, spotlighting, or piloted aerial surveys can be expensive and time consuming. To overcome these issues, camera traps and remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS or drones) are increasingly being used to detect and monitor deer populations. This thesis presents a new method for assessing the imagery provided by RPAS and camera traps using Machine Learning, reducing the time and cost of assessing deer p

Abstract:

Density estimation of terrestrial mammals has become increasingly important in ecology, and robust analytical tools are required to provide results that will guide wildlife management. This thesis concerns modelling encounters between unmarked animals and camera traps for density estimation. We explore Rowcliffe et al. (2008) Random Encounter Model (REM) developed for estimating density of species that cannot be identified to the individual level from camera trap data. We demonstrate how REM can be used within a maximum likelihood framework to estimate density of unmarked animals, motivated by

Abstract:

Monitoring wildlife is of great interest to ecologists and is arguably even more important in the Arctic, the region in focus for the research network INTERACT, where the effects of climate change are greater than on the rest of the planet. This master thesis studies how artificial intelligence (AI) and computer vision can be used together with camera traps to achieve an effective way to monitor populations. The study uses an image data set, containing both humans and animals. The images were taken by camera traps from ECN Cairngorms, a station in the INTERACT network. The goal of the project

Abstract:

Camera traps have taken off one of the most popular tools in ecology. This thesis aims to develop existing camera trap methodology in order to better assess the distribution and abundance of deer in the UK. Particular focus was made on the invasion history of muntjac to help elucidate their invasion pattern. The number of founding females was estimated to be 4 or 5 individuals. The effect of covariates on the camera detection zones were considered to help improve density estimates resulting from camera trap research. Flash type and individual passing speed proved to be two important covariates

Abstract:

The deployment of camera traps, which automatically take pictures of wild animals moving in front of them, is now routinely used to survey terrestrial mammal communities worldwide. The resulting photographic data are used to answer questions relating to the richness and structure of mammal communities, the density of their component species, and how the latter might interact. This thesis fills key methodological gaps in how these questions are addressed. My first data chapter assesses how the exact placement of camera traps on natural game trails influences the characterisation of community ri

Abstract:

Knowledge of the richness of species that inhabit a particular area is an essential metric for both conservationists and practitioners. Relatively cost-efficient and easily standardized solution has occurred in last the decades with the massive digitalization of photography, the camera trap. Such an independent detector is bias-free in the probability of recording objects passing by and in most cases does not disturb animals. Recent discoveries of new mammal species are proof of this. Moreover, camera traps allow for insight into the otherwise hidden behaviour of even the most timid animals.

Abstract:

Obstacle avoidance is a well researched area, however most of the works only consider a 2D environment. Drones can move in three dimensions. It is therefore of interest to develop a system that ensures safe flight in these three dimensions. Obstacle avoidance is of highest importance for drones if they are intended to work autonomously and around humans, since drones are often fragile and have fast moving propellers that can hurt humans. This project is based on the obstacle restriction algorithm in 3D, and uses OctoMap to conveniently use the sensor data from multiple sensors simultaneously a

Abstract:

A perda de habitats é, atualmente, a grande ameaça à diversidade de vertebrados terrestres (Crooks, 2002). Muito pouco resta da vegetação nativa no estado de São Paulo, uma vez que é o estado mais desenvolvido do Brasil. Embora sua porção litorânea ainda possua uma grande faixa de Floresta Atlântica, o que restou da vegetação de cerrado em seu interior são pequenos fragmentos, cercados de agricultura e silvicultura. Entretanto, este mosaico de vegetação ainda abriga espécies de médios e grandes mamíferos. Este estudo foi desenvolvido numa área com fragmentos de cerradão, cerrado sensu stricto,

Abstract:

Single-species research dominates the field of ecology; however there is a growing appreciation of the importance of a multi-species approach to holistic conservation. Carnivores exert a top-down control on other species, and are vital components of stable ecosystem functioning. Physiologically adapted for predation upon other animals, competition between carnivores can be particularly aggressive; frequently resulting in mortality, and even population suppression. Big cat research has historically focused on those species that are most easily observable; in particular the lion Panthera leo. Th

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES<br>Capuchin monkeys are frugivorous-insectivorous primates, although they can explore a wide range of food items. The availability of fruits is a key-aspect of the ecology of these primates, with direct influences over the quality of a given area for the species, and often represents the main determinant of the pattern of range use of groups. In a population-level analysis, however, the pattern of occupation of a fragment by capuchin monkeys is influenced by a broader set of factors, including structural parameters of the habi

But through the single scale object detection model, the image scale detected was very limited. The higher the drone is, less information could be extracted from the data, causing the rise of difficulty on vehicle detection. Also, while the progress extends from vehicle detection to vehicle tracking, it might cause matching failure because of the small detecting scale on the vehicle and the moving speed. Through tho

In the way of using camera-trap to collect wildlife images, people do not need to wait for a long time in a fixed place until animals appear. However, in order to analyze these images and videos collected by camera-trap, and if this work is processed manually, it may require a lot of time and money. In addition, the speed of collecting wildlife images and videos is so fast that the biologists can’t effectively

With the ever-increasing human population, more people reside in urban areas than ever before; this is having marked effects on the landscape and in turn, wildlife. This study uses automatically triggered wildlife cameras to assess the distribution of three carnivore species (coyotes, Canis latrans; red foxes, Vulpes vulpes; and gray foxes, Urocyon cinereoargenteus) around the Pioneer Valley of Massachusetts in relation to a gradient of human development. Cameras were placed at 141 locations within the 320-km2 study area over the course of three field seasons (3,052 trap nights). Relative abun

I investigated the value of under-road tunnels as a conservation strategy to protect a long-toed salamander population, in south-west Alberta, whose overwintering sites and breeding habitat (Linnet Lake) are separated by a road. I conducted a mark-recapture study from 2008-2009, capturing salamanders using roadside fences and pitfall traps. Four tunnels were monitored in 2009 using traps and cameras. A 2008 estimate indicated that the population declined by 60% since 1994, however, road mortality was dramatically reduced following installation of fences and tunnels. Camera and trap data docu
