Inspiration

Wanted to combat the problem of deforestation as it leads to deterioration of terrestrial ecosystems.

What it does

An AI powered web-app that can automatically detect deforestation in an area over a period of time.

How we built it

Used deep learning (transfer learning) to build and train an AI model to predict percentage of forestation cover from an image

Challenges we ran into

Challenges with ngrok, making of the AI model, streamlit etc.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Got a working prototype of the problem with a root mean squared error of 4%.

What we learned

Multiple new technologies, manipulating large datasets, Working in a tight time frame, bias for action.

What's next for TimberTrack

Collaborate with government forest officials to help combat deforestation
