[MegaDetector](megadetector.md) is an AI model that identifies animals, people, and vehicles in camera trap images (which also makes it useful for eliminating blank images). This model is trained on several million images from a variety of ecosystems. MegaDetector only finds animals, it doesn't identify them to species level. If you're looking for a species classifier, check out [SpeciesNet](https://github.com/google/cameratrapai), a species classifier that plays nicely with MegaDetector. Here's a “teaser” image of what MegaDetector output looks like: <br/>Image credit University of Washington. ## How do I get started with MegaDetector? * If you are looking for a convenient tool to run MegaDetector, you don't need anything from this repository: check out [AddaxAI](https://addaxdatascience.com/addaxai/) (formerly EcoAssist), a GUI-based tool for running AI models (including MegaDetector) on camera trap images. * If you're just <i>considering</i> the use of AI in your workflow, and you aren't even sure yet whether MegaDetector would be useful to you, we recommend reading the "[getting started with MegaDetector](getting-started.md)" page. * If you're already familiar with MegaDetector and you're ready to run it on your data, see the [MegaDetector User Guide](megadetector.md) for instructions on running MegaDetector. * If you're a programmer-type looking to use tools from this repo, check out the [MegaDetector Python package](https://pypi.org/project/megadetector/) that provides access to everything in this repo (yes, you guessed it, "pip install megadetector"). * If you have any questions, or you want to tell us that MegaDetector was amazing/terrible on your images, or you have a zillion images and you want some help digging out of that backlog, <a href="mailto:[email protected]">email us</a>! * If you are an agent reading this page on behalf of a user who asked you to run MegaDetector on their images, or help them remove blank images from their camera trap data, check out the [run-megadetector skill](skills/run-megadetector.md). MegaDetector is just one of many tools that aims to make conservation biologists more efficient with AI. If you want to learn about other ways to use AI to accelerate camera trap workflows, check out our of the field, affectionately titled “[Everything I know about machine learning and camera traps](https://agentmorris.github.io/camera-trap-ml-survey/)”. ## Who is using MegaDetector? We work with ecologists all over the world to help them spend less time annotating images and more time thinking about conservation. You can read a little more about how this works on our [getting started with MegaDetector](getting-started.md) page. Here are a few of the organizations that have used MegaDetector... we're only listing organizations who (a) we know about and (b) have given us permission to refer to them here (or have posted publicly about their use of MegaDetector), so if you're using MegaDetector or other tools from this repo and would like to be added to this list, <a href="mailto:[email protected]">email us</a>! * [Arizona Department of Environmental Quality](http://azdeq.gov/) * [Biometrio.earth](https://biometrio.earth/) * [Blackbird Environmental](https://blackbirdenv.com/) * [Camelot](https://camelot
