Avian Point Count Data
Point counts, in which observers count birds seen or heard over a set period, are commonly used for determining the relative abundance of birds.
Autonomous Recording Units (ARUs)
Autonomous recording units (ARUs) are self-contained audio recording devices that can record a wide range of vocalizations over extended deployment periods.
Checklist Data
Checklist data comprise raw observations of birds in the field, including species information, location, and date/time.
Other Occurrence Data
Occurrence data include records or evidence that a species occurred at a particular place.
