Biodiversity data assessment and prediction is absolutely critical for the effective design and uptake of nature-based solutions in the UK and globally. Next generation biodiversity data assessment and prediction will be transformational in our ability to understand how and why biodiversity is changing. Without this, we will continue to be exposed to significant risks associated with biodiversity loss, and considerable uncertainties will remain in the effectiveness of nature-based solutions.
AI-INTERVENE is a revolutionary doctoral training programme which aims to produce a new generation of AI-empowered data scientists equipped with the required AI expertise, data science tools, ecological knowledge and wider interdisciplinary skillset needed to unlock the full potential of the wealth of existing as well as emerging sources of biodiversity data. The actionable knowledge and insights obtained from application of state-of-the-art AI theory, methods and models to the data will support AI-INTERVENE’s partners to make informed data-driven decision making to tackle the biodiversity crisis.
