Case Study: Queen Mary University of London achieves 3x higher sea turtle detection with Dronespot by Wolf In Motion

Queen Mary University of London boosts turtle detection 3x with Wolf In Motion

Queen Mary University of London faced a significant challenge in its marine conservation research: a tedious, error-prone process of manually linking drone video to GPS data for sea turtle surveys. This lack of automation created a major bottleneck, requiring deep technical expertise and making it impossible to scale the project. Wolf In Motion was engaged to design a solution to this problem.

Wolf In Motion developed Dronespot, a specialized desktop application that synchronizes drone telemetry with video for accurate 3D geolocation. The solution increased turtle detection counts by 3x, achieving an average detection rate of 2.4 turtles per minute. It also reduced training time significantly, allowing junior personnel to conduct scaled surveys and fundamentally changing the capacity for marine research at the university.
