Summary

Hosted by AGCI in July 2024, this interdisciplinary workshop brings together AI experts and ecologists to identify data, infrastructure, and methodological gaps limiting AI’s impact on biodiversity conservation. It explores the need for robust biodiversity monitoring systems and integration of remote sensing with field data. The event addresses bottlenecks such as lack of standardization and data quality, and promotes collaborative solutions to scale AI tools responsibly for ecosystem monitoring and decision support.
