Inspiration
We thought about where was the whole problem coming from and it dragged us back to the source of exchange between suppliers and clients. We thought that by spotting these contacts we would naturally reduce the trafficking.
What it does
The virtual surveillance for the online wildlife trafficking on social media to help technology companies, conservation groups & law enforcement officials to spot illegal online sales and considerable reduce this massive criminal industry that is the online animal trafficking.
How we built it
An algorithm that will allow to flag new demand trends including emerging markets (and take action accordingly).
Challenges we ran into
Picture future technical improvements at this early stage
Accomplishments that we're proud of
work between unknown members that composed the team with complete different backgrounds and be able to complete such work
What we learned
We learned more in depth about how the whole animal trafficking works and how unprotected are most platforms
What's next for The Zoo Tracker
The best!
