Protecting Ireland's Hedgerows with AI

Sceach is an automatic habitat endangerment detection system that uses instance segmentation on satellite imagery to identify illegal hedge cutting, helping protect biodiversity and save thousands of birds each year.

The Problem

Ireland has over 689,000km of hedgerows - critical habitats for wildlife

60%
of Irish birds are of serious conservation concern
<10%
of infringements are reported
2-3 days
traditional investigation time

Our Solution

We revolutionize hedgerow protection by combining satellite imagery with AI. Rangers can scan any area on-demand and receive instant before/after comparisons, turning a 2-3 day investigation into a 2-3 minute process.
