Inspiration
Living nearby to one of the most beautiful places on earth - Banff National Park makes anyone realize the value of preserving wild life. People come from all over the world not even just all over Canada to appreciate the sheer beauty of the landscape, the wildlife, the terrain, and the outdoors
What it does
Zemlia is a platform that lets users explore, connect, learn, and protect by discovering wildlife, engaging in discussions, and accessing expert insights. Through AI-powered species recognition, interactive maps, and conservation partnerships, we empower people to track, share, and safeguard nature.
How we built it
Lots and lots of Redbull. We spent hours brainstorming ideas, streamlining everyones incredible suggestions, and quantifying how much we are capable of achieving in only 24 hours. We then delegated roles to one another, and began to hack. We would check in every hour or so with one another to ensure everyone was feeling supported and on track. We'd bounce around asking for votes and opinions on every new feature we implemented, every design change we suggested, and every crash we inevitably caused.
Challenges we ran into
git. holy goodness git. 5 people collaborating on one single thing at the same time even with an organized structure can get chaotic when on a time constraint.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Training our very own AI model (appropriately named Zemli) to characterize wildlife posts from users Incredibly flushed out UI and UX. With appropriate color pallete, icons, animations, transitions, all taken into account. Majority of our starting ideas we were able to implement into our final MVP Designing a wonderful pitch deck and logo, and mockups to showcase our final product
What we learned
the real zemlia was the friends we made along the way.
