# Event Details - **Event Name**: Guest Speaker: Dr. Zachary Randell- ROV Surveys within Kelp Forests - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 28 Mar, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Sat, 28 Mar, 2026 at 02:30 pm - **Event Description**: Hear about how ROV surveys within kelp forests and open-source AI models are used to process survey images and extract dataAbout this EventSince 2022, the Seattle Aquarium’s Coastal Climate Resilience (CCR) program has advanced the use of relatively low-cost, compact, and customizable remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) as a novel way to monitor shallow coastal ecosystems, particularly kelp forests. By combining high-resolution underwater imagery with open-source AI analyses, the goal of this work is to generate new insights into the resilience of kelp, invertebrate, and fish communities. The approach is designed to be scalable and adaptable, with integration into other data sources such as scuba diver surveys and satellite imagery. Importantly, the open-source model has enabled volunteers with specialized skills to make novel contributions to semi-autonomous ROV flight controls and AI-based image processing and data extraction. At its core, CCR emphasizes transparency, reproducibility, and collaboration—empowering scientists, conservation practitioners, and community partners to expand these methods and strengthen collective efforts to conserve and restore coastal ecosystems in the face of climate change.You can learn more about this work here:https://github.com/Seattle-Aquarium/Coastal_Climate_Resilience - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/mount-vernon/guest-speaker-dr-zachary-randell-rov-surveys-within-kelp-forests/100001978355035166 - **Event Categories**: it, photography - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fguest-speaker-dr-zachary-randell-rov-surveys-within-kelp-forests-tickets-1978355035166 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Mount Vernon - **state**: WA - **country**: United States - **location**: Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve - **lat**: 48.49428760000001 - **long**: -122.48087980000002 - **full address**: Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, 10441 Bayview-Edison Road, Mount Vernon, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (https://allevents.in/org/padilla-bay-national-estuarine-research-reserve/22535783) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/4ee6526281d79fc943584ee4c18de007544fee749174950cf14a493b60a1babe-rimg-w704-h404-dc182e33-gmir.jpg?v=1767533108 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/071ae1194a02e95e90c4aa3d257d8a885a1e8c9f69f1efe1f330268a98f42038-rimg-w400-h400-dc2d7975-gmir.jpg?v=1767533107 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Sat, 28 Mar, 2026 at 01:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, 10441 Bayview-Edison Road, Mount Vernon, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** it, photography - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Guest Speaker: Dr. Zachary Randell- ROV Surveys within Kelp Forests ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Guest Speaker: Dr. Zachary Randell- ROV Surveys within Kelp Forests", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/4ee6526281d79fc943584ee4c18de007544fee749174950cf14a493b60a1babe-rimg-w704-h404-dc182e33-gmir.jpg?v=1767533108", "startDate": "2026-03-28", "endDate": "2026-03-28", "url": "https://allevents.in/mount-vernon/guest-speaker-dr-zachary-randell-rov-surveys-within-kelp-forests/100001978355035166", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "10441 Bayview-Edison Road", "postalCode": "98273-9668", "addressLocality": "Mount Vernon", "addressRegion": "WA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "48.49428760000001", "longitude": "-122.48087980000002" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Hear about how ROV surveys within kelp forests and open-source AI models are used to process survey images and extract data", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2026-03-28", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/mount-vernon/guest-speaker-dr-zachary-randell-rov-surveys-within-kelp-forests/100001978355035166" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/mount-vernon/guest-speaker-dr-zachary-randell-rov-surveys-within-kelp-forests/100001978355035166", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/padilla-bay-national-estuarine-research-reserve/22535783", "description": "Padilla Bay is a National Estuarine Research Reserve, providing research and education about estuaries and coastal issues in the Salish Sea.
