Coach Spore Diesel<p><a href="https://spore.social/tags/Bird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Bird</span></a> loving friends, can you identify who this is? This bird does a jazz riff and <a href="https://spore.social/tags/MerlinApp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MerlinApp</span></a> has not been able to tell me for sure who it is. Possibly because we have so many going off at once. MP3 file. This is Yazoo County, Mississippi, USA. Thanks!</p><p><a href="https://drive.proton.me/urls/XSQPC3W19C#_4ZzO0IN8jQs" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">drive.proton.me/urls/XSQPC3W19</span><span class="invisible">C#_4ZzO0IN8jQs</span></a></p><p><a href="https://spore.social/tags/BirdWatching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BirdWatching</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a></p>
Coach Spore Diesel<p>I'm trying to figure out how "if it's free, you are the product" applies to the Merlin app for identifying birds. </p><p>I have 0 interest in birbs but this thing is infecting me.</p><p><a href="https://spore.social/tags/birds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birds</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/birding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>birding</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/MerlinApp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MerlinApp</span></a> <a href="https://spore.social/tags/CornellLabs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CornellLabs</span></a></p>
DoomsdaysCW<p>Now this (and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MerlinApp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MerlinApp</span></a>) are good uses for <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Smartphones" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Smartphones</span></a>! </p><p>Structure and functionality of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FloraIncognita" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FloraIncognita</span></a> app</p><p>"The Flora Incognita app currently allows the automatic identification of more than 16.000 vascular plant species. The identification process is intuitive: take a picture of the plant with the camera of the smartphone or <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/tablet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tablet</span></a>. The unknown plant is then automatically identified in seconds. In addition to the identified plant species, a fact sheet displays further information such as characteristics, distribution, or protection status. The app was launched in April 2018 and is freely available in 20 languages for Android, iOS, and Harmony OS devices. </p><p>"The app guides users through an adaptive process of taking one or more images depicting specific organs of an unknown plant, such as a flower or a leaf. Which images are requested and in which order is determined automatically based on an observation’s context, that is, the growth form of the unknown plant, the current season and already acquired information. The identification process requires an internet connection for transferring images and metadata to the server and receiving results. In areas without network coverage, users can capture unknown plants and save those observations in offline mode. When, later, there is a network connection, those plant findings can be identified with all important metadata pertaining to that image (i.e. date and location). All images are analyzed using a cascade of deep neural networks on the Flora Incognita computer cluster. The app will either suggest a single plant species or a short list of similar species ranked by the identification probability. For each species, a comprehensive fact sheet and informative images depicting different perspectives and organs are provided. Users are requested to confirm the correct species at the end of the process to commit an observation."</p><p><a href="https://floraincognita.com/flora-incognita-app/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">floraincognita.com/flora-incog</span><span class="invisible">nita-app/</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/PlantIdentification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PlantIdentification</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CitizenScientists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CitizenScientists</span></a></p>
