“…To simultaneously increase the sampling efficiency and standardize the animal detection system, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) or microlight aircrafts with cameras and an automated image object detection algorithm are considered an alternative to manned aircrafts with human observers (Colefax, Butcher, & Kelaher, 2018;Linchant, Lisein, Semeki, Lejeune, & Vermeulen, 2015;Rey, Volpi, Joost, & Tuia, 2017;Sirmacek et al, 2012). In the past decade, this proposed method has been explored and tested in various studies (Hodgson et al, 2018;Kellenberger, Marcos, & Tuia, 2018;Rey et outperform humans in detecting animals from the air when supplied with images taken at a fixed rate. computer vision, convolutional neural network, deep machine learning, drones, game census, image recognition, savanna, wildlife survey Van Gemert et al, 2014).…”
