This project uses the crane radar to make science communication more interactive. The radar combines mathematical models, ecological knowledge, AI, and user observations to simulate the crane migration over the Netherlands in real time. Through co-creation, the radar is improved to enhance user-friendliness. A virtual crane is also added, allowing people to ask questions about the migration and the science behind it. This makes complex ecological knowledge accessible to a broad audience. The insights from this project contribute to better ways of communicating science and help implement digital twin technology more effectively in education and nature conservation.
