Steve Boyes is a conservation biologist and National Geographic explorer. He is dedicated to the preservation of the Okavango Delta, the last wetland wilderness in Africa. He and his brother, Chris Boyes, led an expedition over 1,500 miles (2,414 kilometers) down the length of the Okavango River in 2015. Bringing together expedition, science, and documentary teams, they made it down the length of the Cuito River—a source river starting in Angola—to the delta’s end in Botswana.

About National Geographic:
National Geographic is the world’s premium destination for science, exploration, and adventure. Through their world-class scientists, photographers, journalists, and filmmakers, Nat Geo gets you closer to the stories that matter and past the edge of what’s possible.
One of the unique things about this expedition was that the team uploaded data from the field daily via satellite to their website, intotheokavango.org, and a public API. They wanted to make the data available for anyone to remix, analyze, or visualize the collected information.
