Monitoring projects
From Raw Data to Robust Ecological Inference
A monitoring project turns detections into answers about where species are and how many: a study designed to answer your question, independent expert validation alongside your own, and results with their uncertainty quantified.
Which species are here?
Species presence
A validated list of every species calling at your sites.
Learn more →
Where and when are they?
Site occupancy
Where target species occur, and how that changes across sites and seasons.
Learn more →
How many are there?
Density proxy
How many individuals are calling, located by synchronised recorders.

Has it arrived?
Invasive species alerts
Near-real-time alerts when a target species is heard.

How we get there
A classifier's confidence score is not a probability. Three steps turn it into one.
- 01Efficient validationExperts validate detections using optimised sampling, so fewer checks give reliable results.
- 02CalibrationThose reviews turn model scores into detection probabilities for your recordings.
- 03EstimationStatistical models carry that uncertainty through, so every result has a confidence interval.
What you receive
- ✓Platform reporting: maps, site and seasonal summaries, and downloadable data
- ✓A written summary of findings, methods and limitations
- ✓Secure storage, with data sovereignty options
- ✓The Pro platform for the length of the project
Evidence you can stand behind
- ✓Independently verifiable. Anyone can check the detections behind a result.
- ✓Traceable provenance. Every result traces back to the recording, model and reviewer.
- ✓Rigorous uncertainty. Confidence intervals come with every result.
- ✓Comparable over time. The same methods, so surveys can be compared year to year.
Scope, data ownership and specialist surveys are covered in the service terms.
