The Planning Committee for the 2026 Emerging Technologies Information Sessions (ETIS) Event invites the submittal of abstracts on research and activities related to emerging technologies for ecological monitoring and data management.
This year’s theme, Insight Below the Surface: Advancing Ecological Monitoring Through Innovative Tools and Data Driven Decisions, will bring together monitoring professionals, project managers, data collectors, and data consumers from across the globe to showcase the latest tech and tools in monitoring. Additionally, this event will provide the opportunity to network and build collaborations with other monitoring professionals.
Topics being considered include:
- Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning
- Data Management (QA/QC, digital reporting, visualizations, etc.)
- Genetics (eDNA, PBT, etc.)
- Predictive Modeling (informing habitat restoration; informing decision making)
- Remote Sensing (UASs, ROVs, Satellites, etc.)
- Tagging and Trapping Tech
- And any other emerging technology or innovative technique you might be employing for ecological monitoring
For more details and to submit your abstract go here; abstract deadline is May 31, 2026.
