Scientific Photo Analysis for Research & Conservation database (SPARCd), known during development as Scientific Animal Image Analysis (SANIMAL)

SPARC'd is a program developed for the University of Arizona's Jaguar and Ocelot Monitoring Project at the Wild Cat Research and Conservation Center, School of Natural Resources and the Environment Department.

  • It allows users to tag camera trap image data, transfer it onto a database, and then query it.
