Environmental science and interest in widespread conservation efforts have led to a ton of new research into improving out technologies that help with conservation projects worldwide. From monitoring, analyzing, and predicting the state of various environments and species, a lot of work needs to be done in order to figure out the best ways to prevent environmental collapse.

The increase in availability of satellite imagery has proved useful in tracking environmental degradation, as researchers can monitor visible changes to ecosystems more easily. Increasingly, drone technology has allowed environmental researchers to arrange for monitoring on their own terms, improving the accuracy of monitoring. Additionally, the types of cameras, tracking devices, and crisis alert monitoring systems have been vastly improved in recent years to allow researchers to get a better picture about what they are looking at when they study environmental degradation and conservation.

Studying and creating plans for conservation efforts can take a lot of time, resources, and energy in order to conduct research and conservation in the most effective way possible. The improvement in these types of technologies makes it easier for more people, in more places around the world, to get involved in solving the problems related to environmental collapse.
