Data driven insights for urban environments
Urban environments are home to a broad variety of species – from foxes, to hedgehogs, squirrels and mice. To evaluate the impact of policies and interventions in urban environments, continuous monitoring of urban wildlife provides data-driven insights into how cities are functioning and changing over time.

Tests in the urbanized environment of Zurich revealed patterns of presence of the different species and can even help with early detection of an invasive species – the racoon!
