Nature restoration shouldn’t start from zero. Lost Habitats shows exactly where ecosystems like woodlands and wetlands existed in 1900 - so restoration can follow nature’s blueprint. How much more effective could that be?

20km of hedgerows lost in one image.

These historic boundaries still hold remnant roots, soil microbiomes & drainage patterns primed for recovery.

Our Lost Field Boundaries product maps these nationally, helping landowners turn history into actionable #NatureRestoration.

Roman roads: rapid approvals, no pesky heritage surveys, just build! The Planning & Infrastructure Bill is channelling that energy. National-scale earthwork mapping is available right now - let’s use it to plan responsibly.

Rivers don’t just disappear without a trace.

For this International Day of Action for Rivers, we’re using AI and historic maps to find lost habitats, and infer where rivers once shaped the land.

Historic maps hold the data, but we need to query them at scale to make it useful.

It was fantastic to welcome graduate Dr Iris Kramer onto campus this week, as she unveiled a purple plaque in her name.

The UKRI plaque recognises Iris’ inspiring achievements in science and innovation through her company ArchAI.

Returned to @unisouthampton to see my purple plaque unveiled! These plaques celebrate @innovateuk Women in Innovation Awardees. It was a lovely moment to catch up with old supervisors, reflect on the journey, and share how those crazy ideas became ArchAI🎉

I’ll be at @BlueEarthSummit this Wednesday at the @ARCHAI_LTD booth, showcasing Lost Habitats! Stop by for a chat or a demo on how we’re using AI to map historic landscapes for nature recovery and rewilding. Let’s connect! #AI #NatureRecovery #Rewilding

[Dr Iris Kramer @ickkramer]

Just kicked off the CIfA Innovation Festival with my talk on AI in archaeology! It was great to see so much curiosity and interest from the audience which led to some good discussion.

Plenty more insightful sessions coming up—be sure to check them out!

[CIfA @InstituteArch]

CIfA’s week-long virtual historic environment Innovation Festival kicks off today and is packed with daily thought-provoking sessions. Festival programme: https://t.co/IYuCpKQ0d6. There’s still time to book (session recordings also available afterwards): https://t.co/nyD16P3kui

[Dr Iris Kramer @ickkramer]

What new opportunities do Earth Observation and AI offer for cultural heritage resilience?

On 8th Oct, I’ll share how we at ArchAI use AI & satellite data to map sites and support decision making for site protection at the @EU4Space UCP event.

How does #AI help archaeologists analyse complex landscapes?

On 7th October, 10:00 AM, I’ll be discussing this at the Innovation Festival of the Chartered Institute for Archaeology.

It has been such a great experience to be part of @creativedlab. Yesterday was packed with mentorship discussions which helped refine our hiring and sales strategy, and the day ended with an amazing dinner at Keble College, Oxford to celebrate our journeys so far 🙌

[Aerial Archaeology Research Group (AARG) @AerialArchRG]

📢Have you ever wondered how to use the Relief Visualisation Toolbox plugin in #QGIS? Do you want to know more about different visualisations or create custom ones?
We have the right workshop for you (online):
📅May 25th, from 11:30
The registration fee will feed the AARGFund!

[Dr Iris Kramer @ickkramer]

Very excited to be speaking today at the Heritage sustainability for climate and nature session at #CIfA2023.

I'm speaking about @ARCHAI_LTD's #AI derived national maps of heritage assets and how these datasets are used by our clients to create sustainable places.

[Dr Iris Kramer @ickkramer]

I was given a great opportunity to share my experience of spinning out my business from my PhD research with the PhD students on the interactive AI CDT at @BristolUni. They had lots of questions so perhaps some will be inspired to start their own business from their innovations!

[Interactive AI CDT @Bristol_AI_CDT]

We have had a great range of talks today at the Spring Research Conference. From AI students presenting current research and invited speaker Dr Iris Kramer @archAI talking about her journey of commercializing PhD into a startup #InteractiveAI

[Dr Iris Kramer @ickkramer]

@docuracy @UniofExeter Thank you! I enjoyed yours as well 😃

[Dr Iris Kramer @ickkramer]

Excited to be at the Workshop on Mapping Historic Habitats at @UniofExeter today. I'll be talking about national digitising of historic maps but I'm particularly interested to learn about the use cases of digitised maps in modelling historic habitats 🗺️🌳
