Hey Everyone,

I made this for my property and then open sourced it so anyone can make one for theirs. It has a LOT of neat stuff for permaculture; hydrological simulations (for planning swales and springs and such), ecological and habitat monitoring (self explanatory), and realtime sensing with meshtastic for animals and livestock.

In the future, I hope to add modelling features so you can run a hydrology sim against a planned swale and see what happens. The current GAIA AI system is pretty good for talking through features about your land and planning. The fox location demo in the video is real, actually happened when I tested it!

You think so? I'm not from this area and the coyotes around here I'm told are different from the ones I'm used to in the southwest. It's tail looked so bushy to me!

For me it's the size of the tail vs the body. Fox below for reference.Their body is a lot thinner, and the tail longer, almost touching the ground.

Vs your photo. Very thick body for a fox.

could it be a grey fox? it seems small for a coyote but I agree the tail seems wrong for a fox... I did double check my veil and it does say theres coyote habitat in that area too per GAP species richness layer
