WABAD: A world annotated bird acoustic dataset for passive acoustic monitoring. [PDF]

Ecology
Abstract Under the current global biodiversity crisis, there is a need for automated and noninvasive monitoring techniques that can gather large amounts of data cost‐effectively at various ecological scales, from local to large spatial scales. These data can then be analyzed to inform stakeholders and decision‐makers.
