This project aims to produce a Wildlife Observatory that assimilates currently siloed camera trap data into a user-friendly continental database.

.@WildObsAU was made possible with government funding from @arc_gov_au. It involves many government & NGO stakeholders, including TERN, which will oversee the #database once the #wildlife observatory is fully developed 🦘📸

The new TERN-supported @WildObsAU aims to standardise the collection & processing of camera trap #data, as well as collate, curate and share the database for #research 📸🦘
See how they will make camera datasets widely usable to stimulate research! 👉 https://t.co/2S1gUK0CTA

@AusGovEducation Happy National #ScienceWeek! 🎉
We're TERN (Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network), Australia's Land Ecosystem Observatory. Check out our #60sec4Science snapshot of what we do & why! 😁

[Threatened Species Index @AusTSX]

Brilliant to attend the @WildObsAU workshop this week. Bringing together camera trappers from across Oz to discuss how an observatory of cameras can be achieved. A boon for us at the TSX, given the vast camera trapping data on threatened species amassed each year in Oz.

[WildObs Australia @WildObsAU]

The final day of our #wildobs2022 Camera Trap #workshop focused on discussions about writing a review paper & what our plan moving forward will be. Once again, thank you to everyone who came to participate in helping establish this ambitious project! 😁🎉

Day 2 of the #wildobs2022 Camera Trap #workshop has wrapped up, and there were some amazing insights and experiences shared by today's speakers and the group. We even had a surprise guest join us for a couple of presentations (or maybe just the free food) 🐦

Amazing to see TERN-managed @AusTSX playing such an important role in showing trends of threatened mammal, plants and birds in the 2021 #StateofTheEnvironmentReport, released today. We have a call out now for #data – you can help us to continue #monitoring trends 🌿🦜🐨
