Drones and AI detection technology are helping us monitor one of England’s largest grey seal colonies.
Thousands of grey seal pups are born every year on Norfolk’s sweeping beaches. Counting them accurately without getting too close can be a challenge.
Using drones and AI, we have been able to enhance the accuracy of our monitoring. Drones can reach inaccessible coves and AI counts thousands of seals in just a few hours.
