The National Science Foundation Office of Integrative Activities awarded the University of California, Santa Barbara $341,228 on September 1, 2026, under the Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) to develop a scientific framework combining artificial intelligence, remote sensing, ecological field research, and economic analysis to measure pollinator ecosystem services and identify high-impact conservation investment locations. The project uses AI and remote sensing to identify bee hives, flowering habitats, and crop fields across entire landscapes, verifies observations through field research, and links findings to managed pollinator populations, crop production, and economic outcomes. The framework is designed to scale beyond pollinators to guide broader conservation and land management decisions. Performance occurs in Santa Barbara, California through August 31, 2031.
