I am excited to see this article, which I wrote with @AmandaMatthes & @GOSHCommunity member Pen-Yuan Hsing, published! We discuss the importance of open source hardware for ecology & conservation, including examples such as @SnapperGPS, @OpenFlexure, OpenCTD & more 🌿

Testing 2023 ocean tech @SnapperGPS alongside 1863 steam boat tech (HMS Warrior) here in Portsmouth at @arribada_i's office. That's 160 years later! @WILDLABSNET

Check out this magical video of a turtle carrying a @SnapperGPS tag out on the reef. Looking forward to that data! Thanks to Joana Hancock and her colleagues at @ORP_INDIANOCEAN for making this possible. video by Denis Moser/Olive Ridley Project

We accidentally made the @SnapperGPS PCB match the #GOSH2022 colour scheme.

Beautiful new @SnapperGPS turtle housing from @AmandaMatthes. This one will be used to trial inductive surfacing detection.

SnapperGPS tags are lightweight, low-cost, and low-power, making them perfect for wildlife tracking. A single tag can log data for over 10,000 locations in one deployment and last for over a year on a small 40 mAh battery: bit.ly/3rjQye4

Throwback to last year's loggerhead sea turtle tagging on Cape Verde with @FMB_CaboVerde. SnapperGPS is #Tech4Wildlife! 🐢

Uploaded a preprint on our open-source wildlife tracking hardware @SnapperGPS to arXiv yesterday📜 We describe some design choices that aim at 🔋very low energy consumption, ⚖️low weight, 💲low costs, and 👱good usability. Here's a summary thread🧵 (1/12)

And that's a wrap for our @SnapperGPS deployments on incubating Manx Shearwaters. Here's a sneak-peek of the data. Now onto monitoring the chick-rearing period. Thanks to everyone in the Oxford Navigation Group who made this possible!

The left picture that @alex_rogers_cs posted is actually a screenshot from our @SnapperGPS app. We draw a circle (radius = uncertainty) for each fix on a map powered by @LeafletJS, @openstreetmap, and @Mapbox.
