Date
December 2019-February 2019
Location
Philadelphia, PA
Skills
Python, OpenCV, Microsoft Excel
Objective
Build a program that can identify invasive species of plants that could be implemented to reduce their spread. The initial prototype used three species invasive to the Wissahickon watershed – Garlic Mustard, Japanese Knotweed, and Japanese Stiltgrass.
Role
Independent Research Project
Results
I presented my project at the Carver Science Fair and won a First Place Medal along with the Geiger Award for Ingenuity.
Reflection
This project taught me how to take a multidisciplinary approach to research, combining both the biological sciences and programming software.
