[okfn-labs] Status of forestwatchers

Mon May 6 13:39:16 UTC 2013

Dear Maning,

Hi! I'm Eduardo Luz and I work in the ForestWatchers Project with Daniel.

Sorry about taking so long to get in touch but I wasn't in the OKFN-labs 
list.

Daniel told me about your interest in the results. We are really happy 
about that!

Well, like Daniel said, we started to analyse the initial data (as soon 
as we consolidate the results we'll make them publicly available). We 
are also experimenting new ways to integrate Artificial Neural Networks 
in the process and how we can give more interesting tasks for the 
volunteers.

Anyway, in the science side there is a lot to be done. And we are really 
happy to discuss it whenever possible.

Thank you for collaborating with the ForestWatchers Project!

Cheers,
Eduardo.
