From snapshot to supercharged science data
WildObs works across many research projects to curate verified camera trap datasets, and we’ve collaborated with them to mobilise data using CamtrapDP. This then allows the ALA to provide the infrastructure behind the WildObs Tagged Image Repository and makes the camera trap data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable.
New WildObs paper highlights challenges and opportunities in camera trap research
A decade-long review of Australian camera trap data in Biological Reviews highlights WildObs' potential to enhance wildlife research, improving efficiency, quality, and scale while reinforcing Australia’s leadership in wildlife monitoring.
Unleashing Camera Trap Data to Monitor Australia’s Wildlife with the Planet Research Data Commons
The ARDC Planet Research Data Commons is partnering with QCIF to scale-up the Wildlife Observatory of Australia (WildObs), a collaborative initiative involving scientists, government agencies, and environmental groups focused on using machine-based observations to monitor wildlife.

Working together at national scale
WildObs partners with leading Australian research and conservation organisations to support large-scale monitoring, data sharing, and ecological research across Australia.
WildObs is a co-investment partnership with the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) through the Planet Research Data Commons (DOI: 10.3565/bvg2-b035). The ARDC is enabled by the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS).
