, 2014 The iNaturalist project is a really cool way to both engage people in citizen science and collect species occurrence data. The premise is pretty simple, users download an app for their smartphone, and then can easily geo reference any specimen they see, uploading it to the iNaturalist website.

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

An Overview of Computer Vision in iNaturalist [PDF]
Biodiversity Information Science and Standards, 2020 iNaturalist is a social network of people who record and share observations of biodiversity. For several years, iNaturalist has been employing computer vision models trained on iNaturalist data to provide automated species identification assistance to iNaturalist participants.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Machine learning image classifiers are increasingly being used to automate camera trap image labelling, but we don't know how much ML model accuracy matters for downstream ecological analyses. Using two large data sets from an African savannah and an Asian dry forest ecosystem, we compared human labelled data with predictions from deep‐learning models ...

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Second‐order habitat selection is influenced by a variety of factors, including individual‐ and species‐specific traits and resource requirements, as well as landscape characteristics. By comparing home range characteristics across individuals, species, and landscapes, we can draw conclusions regarding whether and how different factors influence home ...

Taxonomic concepts continued: iNaturalist
, 2020 Following on from my earlier post ("Taxonomic concepts for dummies"), Beckett Sterner commented: iNaturalist is interesting, but I'm not convinced that it is internally consistent. As a quick rule of thumb, I'm looking for patterns of how name changes relate to taxon identifier changes.

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.Although once abundant across its range, gray foxes (Urocyon cinereoargenteus) are purportedly declining. While range maps indicate that gray fox potentially occur throughout the central United States, contemporary distribution maps are needed. We developed a Habitat Suitability Model for six states, leveraging gray fox presence data in an ensemble ...
