Understanding Recent Technological Advancements in Avian Acoustics

Jerry Cole, Acoustic Avian Biologist at The Institute for Bird Populations

Join Jerry Cole for a gentle introduction to bioacoustics (the study of sounds produced by animals), and an overview of recently developed technologies for the automatic identification of bird sounds. The talk will cover the technology underpinning automatic bird sound identifies, including BirdNet and Merlin Sound ID, and discuss hardware available for automatically capturing bird sounds at home or on the go.
