Artificial intelligence and solar-powered cameras are among tech-tools being deployed to better manage freedom camping this summer. Davis said the Government's efforts have substantially reduced the freedom camping problem and he expected a reduction in complaints this summer. "We're not claiming perfection, but we're certainly claiming that we've made a huge improvement in the issue of responsible camping," Davis said. Demonstrating the re-branding effort, speakers on Monday used the label "responsible campers" instead of "freedom campers". ROSS GIBLIN/STUFF Tourism Minister Kelvin Davis announced further tools to tackle problem freedom camping on Monday.
