On August 11, 2023, ISOC Kyrgyzstan Chapter — Aziz Soltobaev and Talant Sultanov — teamed up with representatives from the Ilbirs Foundation and SMART consultant Michael Hotte for a crucial meeting about protecting nature and wildlife.
The main decision from their discussion was to use Lorawan technology for better wildlife monitoring. This advanced technology can transmit data even in places without cell service, making it easier to react quickly to environmental changes.
We proposed to consider use of lora-enabled devices with machine learning tools to use as camera traps as well as to fight poachers. We hope to find innovative solutions to enable Ilbirs Foundation with practical technological solutions to reach their mission: keeping nature safe and ensuring a better, safer future.
