Summary

Environmental science student Caitlin and French developer Nicolas collaborated to create the app "We Spot Turtles!" after being inspired by their experiences with sea turtle conservation in Western Australia and French Polynesia. The app allows users to upload photos of sea turtles, which are then automatically geolocated and timestamped to aid in tracking these critically endangered species. Utilizing artificial intelligence, the app identifies individual turtles by analyzing their facial scales and pigmentations, assigning unique codes for better monitoring. By launching on Google Play, the app has reached a global audience, fostering communities in places like Exmouth, Western Australia, and Manly Beach, Sydney. Caitlin and Nicolas aim to empower public participation in conservation efforts and plan to expand their work to include other species such as whale sharks, birds, and red pandas, striving to enhance global conservation initiatives.
