Non-Invasive Conservation

—

Ross Davison has spent the last decade immersed in applying 3D technology to new fields and applications. Ross has recently pivoted his focus from heritage conservation toward mitigating the effects of climate change on our endangered ecological areas.

Through these endeavors, Ross is developing new analytical techniques based on computer vision and deep learning. He co-founded Comon Solutions, a environmental analysis firm, that recently won the 2020 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Start-up Competition put on by United National World Tourism Organization for SDG 15 (Life on Land).

Ross has headed over 100 projects across 26 countries on 5 continents. These projects have included partners such as UNESCO, The Nature Conservancy, Nation Estuarine Reserve System, Google, Autodesk, IICOMOS, Adobe, Microsoft, the National Park Service, Leica, Faro, Trimble, and many others. 

In 2015 Ross became a National Geographic explorer, in 2018 a Wells Fargo Coastal Sustainability Fellow, and in 2020 a Wild Gift Fellow. He is an avid diver, climber, and photographer.
