Catálogo de foto-identificação

Conhecer melhor os animais que observamos não só nos ajuda a protegê-los, como também aprofunda a nossa consciência sobre o ambiente que partilham com outras espécies — incluindo nós próprios, Homo sapiens, que fazemos igualmente parte deste ecossistema.

Esta filosofia, juntamente com os crescentes pedidos de colaboração na investigação por foto-identificação, inspirou a criação do nosso banco de dados fotográfico.

O objetivo não é criar um novo catálogo, mas oferecer uma ferramenta aberta e colaborativa, acessível a todos — visitantes curiosos, observadores de baleias, estudantes e investigadores — onde as imagens podem ser carregadas, partilhadas e cruzadas com os catálogos de identificação existentes.

A principal referência deste trabalho continua a ser o catálogo pioneiro criado em 1987 nos Açores pelo IFAW, pelo Dr. Jonathan Gordon e pela Dra. Lisa Steiner, cujos contributos continuam a orientar a foto-identificação em todo o Atlântico.
