Our Services
CTA understands that the same technologies used to exploit the earth’s resources can and must be used to protect our planet. Most of these solutions are either unknown to or rarely adopted by conservationists in the field. Technology must be used to augment current conservation efforts to ensure maximum impact.
Using the most appropriate technologies, CTA provides solutions as a service, meaning we own, integrate, and implement technologies to meet each organization’s needs. We offer science and technology assessment along with testing and implementing technologies. This way, our partners benefit from the entire spectrum of available technologies to accelerate their impact goals.
How we accomplish this:
• CTA uses drones, imaging technology, and commercial survey software tools
• We purchase, integrate, prototype, test, and implement population and land surveying solutions
• To help offset our technology costs, we charge conservationists an affordable fee for our surveying services.
• We select partners through an application and referral process to ensure our services are optimally utilized. Our goal is to provide solutions that work not just for one organization or geography but have broad applicability for the field.
Assessment
We work with conservationists to understand their goals and key success indicators.
Testing and Integration
We leverage our engineering team and testing partners like this system at the San Francisco Zoo.
Implementation
We take our gear out, collect the data and analyze it, providing all relevant data and analysis to our client.
