DuckNet: an open‐source deep learning tool for waterfowl species identification in UAV imagery
Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Using drones with thermal‐RGB sensors and a deep learning model (RetinaNet with ResNet‐50), we surveyed non‐breeding waterfowl across restored wetlands in the Mississippi Alluvial Valley. Our model, DuckNet, achieved high accuracy and offers an open‐source, customizable tool for automated waterfowl detection to support conservation monitoring ...
