Still going strong with Sebastian Gutierrez, Crowd sourcing science, sampling soils

Alexander Gorny & Hani Mohamed from the Department of clinical medicine kicking us off!

Lovely day planned of talks and a prize 🏆

@au.dk #GIS day is beginning!

🎥 Discover how LiDAR is transforming ecological research.

In case you missed our recent #MAMBOwebinar on using airborne LiDAR to measure and map vegetation structure in ecological and biodiversity studies, you can now find it online.

🔗 Watch it here: youtu.be/7HBusUjSrlk?...

🗓️ Last chance to sign up for our upcoming 2-day drone mapping course that will guide you through a real-world example workflow, mapping individual Hawthorn shrubs in a rewilding site!

Deadline to register: 10th November

👉 The ninth MAMBO work package outlines the ethical requirements that the project is obligated to follow.

Our partner, Aarhus University, leads this important effort to ensure all project activities meet the ethical standards.

#MAMBOworkpackages

🌿 Day 1 of the Living Data Conference 2025 brought together experts in biodiversity data, ecology, and policy to discuss how to transform data into actionable knowledge for conservation.

#MAMBO partners presented GeoPl@ntNet. Read all about it here: www.mambo-project.eu/news/mambo-p...

👀 #MAMBO spotted at @pensoft.net's booth at the Living Data 2025 conference!

Pictured here is Pierre Bonnet from our partners at @cirad.bsky.social, showcasing our MAMBO brochure. If you're attending the event, make sure to stop by the @pensoft.net booth (Number 9) to learn more about our work.

💡 The eighth MAMBO work package ensures integration of research activities and results, while managing risk factors and contingencies. It also maintains a professional and efficient coordination of legal, ethical, financial and administrative management of the project.

#MAMBOworkpackages

👉 Sign up for the newsletter of @bmd-project.eu to receive the latest project updates related to biodiversity monitoring, biodiversity data, and biodiversity analyses for better conservation across Europe.

📢 A recent online seminar, titled “Shifting Roles and Permeable Boundaries – Responsibility and Credit in Citizen Science,” highlighted key ethical challenges such as data integrity, inclusivity, and fair recognition of citizen contributors.

#MAMBOwebinars @ukceh.bsky.social

⭐️ The seventh MAMBO work package led by @ufz.de provides a distinct visual project identity and is tasked with the ongoing promotion, dissemination and communication of the developments and outputs of MAMBO.

🔗 Find out more about MAMBO here: www.mambo-project.eu/about

#MAMBOworkpackages

@bmd-project.eu workshop will focus on developing and discussing questions about biodiversity data and how addressing these might enable or enhance natural site management practices and decision-making.

🔗 Learn more and register: bmd-project.eu/news/upcomin...

💡 The sixth MAMBO work package led by @ufz.de integrates and synchronises biodiversity monitoring approaches and data in order to address geographic, taxonomic or methodological gaps.

#MAMBOworkpackages

💡 The fourth MAMBO work package aims to develop consistent and standardised habitat condition metrics using state-of-the-art drone imagery or airborne LiDAR and integrating the data into a deep learning framework.

WP4 is led by @ukceh.bsky.social.

#MAMBOworkpackages

💡 Can drone-based observations provide a viable solution for monitoring habitats? From #MAMBO, we invite you to a webinar that will give insights into how to achieve quality drone data collection under resource constraints.

#MAMBOwebinars

⭐️ The fifth MAMBO work package trials and evaluates MAMBO’s tools (developed in WP3 and WP4) in the field and within stakeholder networks and user platforms (identified in WP1) in the seven demonstration sites of the project.

WP5 is led by @cirad.bsky.social.

#MAMBOworkpackages

🦕 The third #MAMBOagm concluded with an insightful visit to @naturalis.bsky.social!

Our partners had the chance to explore the museum, step into the collection labs and even come face to face with a T.rex.

A big thank you to Naturalis for the warm welcome and for hosting our meeting!

#MAMBOmeets

The second day of #MAMBOagm concluded with presentations covering the topics of:
⏺ Code for easy access and training on GitHub
⏺ Chatting up to models, large language models in biodiversity research
⏺ Impact of image recognition on biodiversity data

#MAMBOmeets

France Gerard presented an overview of the developments of MAMBO's products on airborne LiDAR and drone imagery for habitat condition monitoring.

#MAMBOagm #MAMBOmeets

As part of the session, Niels Raes provided links to future initiatives, Pierre Bonnet talked about lessons learned from demonstration sites, Daniel Kissling focused on upscaling and Tom Breeze covered cost effectiveness.

👀 Pierre Bonnet provided an overview of the tools for plant vegetation monitoring and the key problems they aim to solve. He also identified the end-user communities of the tools and highlighted the importance of acknowledging community-specific needs.
