Engineering solutions
for conservation.
Bringing the world’s most powerful technology to the people solving nature’s biggest problems.
Conservation has a Scale Problem.
Good conservation needs exhaustive surveys, but manual data collection is time consuming, expensive, and back breaking.
CTA is a non-profit engineering consultancy providing solutions for conservationists to accelerate what is often the slowest, hardest part of conservation:
Large-scale data collection.
Our Strategy.
We co-create solutions with conservationists and scientists to find the right tool for their problem without reinventing the wheel.
-
We identify the core data need.
Identify existing tools we can leverage to accelerate the process.
Adapt tools for best application to the problem.
-
Make sure our solution works.
Make sure it gets the data our partner needs.
-
Deploy our solution on the ground with partners.
Collect and analyze data.
Case Studies.
Identifying every tree in a reserve.
Counting 1,000,000 underground penguins.
Our Approach.
We handle the hardware.
By taking on the cost and responsibility ourselves, CTA ensures that conservationists aren’t burdened with expensive or complex technology.
We operate and maintain the solutions.
Conservationists need to focus on their mission without worrying about upkeep, maintenance, or technical hurdles.
We ensure that conservation is a priority in tech development.
Leading tech doesn’t consider the needs of conservationists, so CTA represents conservation amid new innovations.
