ABOUT CANAVIAN
Established to further enhance avian data availability and accessibility
If you’re searching for data on bird abundance, distribution, and responses to environmental change in Canada, you have no shortage of data sources. The challenge, however, can be finding the exact data you’re looking for. That’s where “CanAvian” comes in. Multiple avian data aggregators across the country are joining forces to create the Canadian Network for Open Avian Data (CanAvian) to make it easier to access the data needed for various applications
