Environmental intelligence, built together
We develop artificial-intelligence solutions for environmental data, and we advance citizen science through data standards and interoperability. Our research connects technology, public participation and environmental understanding.
Our mission
Our mission is to help people understand and protect the environment through artificial intelligence and citizen science. We develop tools and approaches that connect environmental observations, reliable data and informed decisions, including through our work in Africa.
Key research areas
Biodiversity modelling
We explore how environmental data, citizen observations and modelling can help us understand biodiversity patterns and inform conservation decisions.
Marine environment monitoring
We combine citizen observations, sensors and data analysis to support monitoring of coastal and marine environments.
Smart cities
We explore how environmental data and citizen participation can inform urban planning and nature-based solutions.
Invasive species monitoring
We develop approaches to detecting and monitoring invasive species through citizen science and environmental data.
Innovation and technology
Interoperability solutions
We develop shared data and metadata standards to connect environmental monitoring systems, citizen-science platforms and research institutions, supporting data exchange and international collaboration.
Decision support systems
We turn environmental data into maps and visualisation tools that help assess risks, guide resource allocation and policy, and support community engagement.
Research impact
Ocean and coastal sustainability
Our research supports understanding of marine ecosystems, helping assess environmental change and inform biodiversity conservation, sustainable fisheries management and coastal resilience planning.
Environmental data management
We develop AI-based approaches to data quality control, environmental modelling and early warning, helping turn environmental observations into evidence for policy and practice.
Collaboration and partnerships
We bring together academic institutions, government agencies, environmental organisations, citizen science communities and technology partners to advance environmental research through shared expertise, data and tools.
