What will transport infrastructures need to look like in 2050 to be biodiversity-friendly?

This was the topic addressed today by our CEO Sylvain Moulherat at the FIRM25 event organized by FEHRL, the international association dedicated to road equipment research.

This presentation enabled him to go back over the Bison project, to which TerrOïko made a major contribution, and whose aim was to build a European roadmap for transport infrastructures that fully integrate ecological issues.

How can we help reduce the risk of collision between trains and wildlife?

Last week, our CEO Sylvain Moulherat was invited to present our work on the subject at the Via Fauna technical seminar.

Via Fauna is a project launched in 2017 by the Fédération Régionale des Chasseurs d'Occitanie (Regional Federation of Hunters), which has led to the development of tools and methods for better integrating ecological connectivity into land-use planning projects and urban planning documents.

PEP-BIOccIA: AI and the future of public service

Since a year ago, the Senate's Foresight Delegation has been focusing on AI and the future of public services. Their work has resulted in the publication of several reports, including one dedicated to environmental issues (*), which was released a few days ago.

The good news is that among the projects and tools cited as examples is the PEP-BIOccIA research project, led by the Occitanie / Pyrénées-Méditerranée Region, in collaboration with OPenIG, CNRS, and our team.

Design and Management of Transport Infrastructure: Methods to Better Protect BiodiversityInfrastructure and Biodiversity Map

Are you interested in the connection between biodiversity protection and transport infrastructure management? Then be sure to check out the latest issue of RGRA, which focuses on these topics.
 

You will discover an article presenting a study commissioned by Toulouse Métropole. To ensure "no net loss" of biodiversity in its territory despite significant development needs, the community has chosen to integrate the Avoid-Reduce-Compensate (ERC) sequence from the planning and design phase of its projects.
