About This hackathon
This urgent hackathon challenges developers, data scientists, and environmental enthusiasts to create AI-driven tools and applications aimed at combating coral degradation. Participants will work with real-world marine data, including imagery, sensor data, and environmental parameters, to build predictive models, monitoring systems, and creative interventions. Mentors from marine biology, AI engineering, and conservation organizations will be on hand to guide teams through ideation and initial prototyping. The event culminates in presentations of prototypes, with prizes awarded for the most impactful and innovative solutions that promise a brighter future for Florida's endangered coral reefs. This is a unique opportunity to apply your tech skills to a critical environmental challenge.
