Introducing GIRAFFE—Generalized Image-based Re-Identification using AI for Fauna Feature Extraction

  • Juan Lavista Ferres

We’re proud to announce the launch of GIRAFFE (Generalized Image-based Re-Identification using AI for Fauna Feature Extraction)—an open-source AI tool developed by Microsoft’s AI for Good Lab, in partnership with the Wild Nature Institute, to help conservationists track and protect Tanzania’s endangered giraffe population. Built over a decade of collaboration, this tool is already helping to provide critical insights for conservationists to help stabilize key giraffe populations in the region, and giraffes are just the beginning.
