Vast online archives of photos, videos and sound recordings collected by the public are reshaping how scientists study the natural world, allowing researchers to answer questions that were once out of reach. A new study led by UNSW Sydney and published in Diversity and Distributions shows how these datasets can be turned into practical tools for conservation, helping scientists identify and track species that have long eluded study.
