DroneWild Rolls Out WildTAK to Forestry and Land Scotland Rangers for Live Wildlife Detection
DroneWild has rolled out WildTAK to Wildlife Rangers at Forestry and Land Scotland. Thermal drones locate every animal over 5 kg in a given area, machine learning classifies species from the video feed, and TAK's shared geospatial map pushes the data to every ranger in real time. The deployment started in deer management and now extends to ATVs, working dogs, and other sensors.
