We’re releasing SelvaBox, the largest tropical tree detection dataset from drone imagery. Our models trained on SelvaBox achieve competitive zero-shot detection performance on unseen tropical tree crown datasets, matching or exceeding competing methods. arxiv.org/abs/2507.00170

We're working on Barro Colorado Island with @HMullerLandau's team to refine our winning #XPRIZERainforest canopy tree mapping solution. We're now confident enough in our workflow to the drone move closer to trees to take even better photos. #BioCLIP correctly ID'ed that one!

In this new study from our lab, @myriam_cloutier shows that segmentation of temperate trees from drone imagery works best at the onset of autumn when leaves start of deciduous trees start to change color. authors.elsevier.com/c/1jMU27qzT3EBA
