NATURE FIRST WEBINAR: “DO MORE WITH DATA”

Nature FIRST, with project partner Sensing Clues hosted a hands-on workshopinar exploring how technology, data, and collaboration can enhance conservation efforts.

In this interactive session, participants gained insights and inspiration on how data can drive smarter conservation strategies. We discussed:

  • The Elephant in the Room: What’s your biggest data challenge? We addressed common hurdles in conservation data use.

  • Maturity Level Assessment: How data-driven is your organization? We identified where participants stand and where you can grow.

  • Prediction Radars: Levels of data sophistication and how organisations use predictive insights to anticipate conservation threats and take proactive action.

  • Monitoring Ecosystems – Paricipants learned how satellite-image-derived indexes, such as NDVI and NDMI, can support habitat mapping and ecosystem monitoring.

  • Make, Buy or Co-Create?: Do you have new functions or tools in mind? Participants learned how to strategically decide whether to develop solutions in-house, purchase existing tools, or collaborate with others—valuable insight for proposal writing and project planning.

This session focused on real-world applications of data tools and services developed in Nature FIRST, helping you navigate the possibilities of working with data more effectively in your conservation work.

Speaker: Jan-Kees Schakel (PhD) founder of Sensing Clues.
