If it becomes the authoritative one, even better, because through Checklistbank it could then become a/the source on birds for Catalogue of Life. ✅

I don’t have an answer to that, but seems like a good question to ask at on of the @wildlabs.bsky.social forums.

camtrapdp 0.4.0 We released a new version of our R package camtrapdp.

📦 We just released a new version (0.4.0) of our R package camtrapdp.

🌟 This release includes lots of new functionality, such as merging and writing Camera Trap Data Packages, updating taxa or rounding coordinates, and conversion to EML.

Weather radars continuously register the movements of billions of animals in the air! We have now published datasets covering large parts of Europe, providing an overview of the aerial habitat in a way no other method can.

Data is available on Alofdata.eu , see our blogpost:

How I built Geolocator DP using open source code New standard and software for geolocator data was inspired by tools developed by the Open science lab of biodiversity.

We create #opensource code, but what is its impact?

Luckily, Raphaël Nussbaumer wrote a blog post describing how he used our software to build a data standard for #geolocator data: oscibio.inbo.be/blog/geoloca... Couldn't be more proud! 🥹

Come do some exciting migratory insect and bird research with us! - Two more weeks until application deadline.

I released a new version of ✨Petridish✨, the free Jekyll theme for research project websites. 🧫

It removes the Twitter feed from the homepage, allows you to add Bluesky and LinkedIn to socials and uses the latest version of Font Awesome. For all updates, see github.com/peterdesmet/...

Fig 2 from Davidson et al. outlining proposed set of standards for bio-logging data.

New Perspective:

Establishing bio-logging data collections as dynamic archives of animal life on Earth rdcu.be/d5ril

Davidson et al discuss the importance of standardization, long-term archiving and sharing of bio-logging data, and outline a roadmap to achieve these goals.

Is there a bias towards genera that start with A? 😊
