    Författare :David Grahn; Timothy Cooper; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Direction of arrival; Machine Learning; Received signal power; Project Ngulia; Gunshot Detection; Poaching;

    Sammanfattning : Poaching is a persistent issue that threatens many of earth’s species including therhino. The methods used by poachers are varied, but many use guns to carry outtheir illegal activities. Gunfire is extremely loud and can be heard for kilometres. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Enhancing Anti-Poaching Efforts Through Predictive Analysis Of Animal Movements And Dynamic Environmental Factors

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Författare :Elena Castelli; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Animal trajectory; Dynamic environment; Trajectory prediction; Machine learning; Regression Neural Network; Poaching; Wildlife conservation;

    Sammanfattning : This degree project addresses poaching challenges by employing predictive analysis of animal movements and their correlation with the dynamic environment using a machine learning approach.

  7. 5. Influence of surface water availability on the distribution of White Rhinoceros in central Greater Kruger

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Julie Mauguiere; [2022]
    Nyckelord :White Rhinoceros; Ceratotherium simum; water provisioning; artificial water; ecological processes; habitat selection; spatial ecology; landscape use; KNP; APNR; SAWC;

    Sammanfattning : The population of white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum simum) is now declining in the Kruger National Park (KNP) in South Africa due to the intense poaching crisis ongoing since the early 2000s. The need for an efficient conservation effort has never been greater and requires a better understanding of white rhinoceros distribution in the landscape. LÄS MER
