ARBIMON

Developed by Rainforest Connection, Arbimon is an open and free-to-use platform that provides an end-to-end solution for acoustic biodiversity monitoring and insights. Users can deploy their audio devices, upload, analyze, and share their findings. At the foundation of Arbimon is a core technology layer responsible for managing audio files and project data in the cloud, which has enabled thousands of users to create more than 3,000 projects across 114 countries. On top of this core layer are AI tools for automatically identifying and validating the presence of vocal species from the raw audio data. The Insights analytics module enables users to inspect species richness and activity patterns in the analyzed data, which can be used to make decisions on policy or actions on the ground. Since the launch of Arbimon, these tools have enabled users to capture significant examples of species calls from across the globe.
