We wrote earlier that CTT has developed a butterfly tag that will help us track migration of monarch butterflies in North America - and that Terra will pick them up. In the spirit of being inclusive, Terra will also pick up our bat tags! So if a tagged bat or butterfly passes by, Terra will let you know, and will let us know, too. This means your Terra—and you!—will contribute conservation data to an ever-increasing diversity of organisms. The network we are creating together is going to be so rewarding to watch, and there will be more and more types of detections we'll add as we go!
We've been very busy getting ready to build the first twenty Terras here. . . the enclosures are here and ready, and we’re just waiting for the PCB and internal components which should show up in the next week. By going through assembly and testing of these first units we’ll be developing a protocol to help us build all the Terras going forward.
By having a group of Terras we can also test more accurately for any flaws, issues, or bugs in the system, and that means we’ll be able to ship a reliable product.
It’s been a steady, step-by-step process for Terra, but we’re seeing those last steps coming up to bringTerra into the world! All this hard work is going to finally produce something real, and we can't thank you all enough for helping us make that happen.
