RCW-885 Computer Vision Project

Here are a few use cases for this project:

1. Forestry Management: The RCW-885 can be used to assess the health of ecosystems and to monitor the number of cavity trees within a particular forest area. This data can help in maintaining a balance in the ecosystem and in scheduling preservation efforts as needed.

2. Wildlife Conservation: The model can aid in the conservation of species that primarily dwell in cavity trees like Red-cockaded Woodpeckers, bats, and certain types of squirrels. By identifying and tracking the availability of these habitats, conservationists can monitor and protect these species' living conditions.

3. Urban Planning: City managers can use RCW-885 to ensure that the development of urban areas does not negatively impact local ecosystems. By identifying trees with cavities in proposed building areas, city planners can better understand the implications of their planning decisions.

4. Educational Research: Researchers in fields like ecology and environmental science can use this model to support their studies about the role of cavity trees in ecosystems, the type of species that live in these trees, and how they are affected by climate changes.

5. Natural Disaster Assessment: After natural disasters such as wildfires or hurricanes, the model can be used to estimate the damage to forest habitats. Identifying the loss of cavity trees can be a critical step in understanding the impacts on wildlife populations and in planning recovery efforts.
