WILDLIFE ACOUSTICS ANNOUNCES SONG SCOPE BIOACOUSTICS SOFTWARE

Detects and identifies wildlife vocalizations in long field recordings

CONCORD, MA - May 21, 2007 - Wildlife Acoustics announces Song Scope, a desktop software application for field biologists. Song Scope software automatically detects and identifies birds, frogs, and other wildlife vocalizations in field recordings using sophisticated patent-pending digital signal processing algorithms. Field biologists can use Song Scope to easily and efficiently analyze long field recordings made by autonomous recording devices to study population density, migration patterns and the beahviour of specific wildlife species.

Song Scope is easy to use:

  1. The Song Scope user starts out with his or her own known recordings of a specific species of interest. Song Scope makes it easy to label these known vocalizations to define the "training data" used to teach Song Scope how to recognize a new vocalization.
  2. Next, Song Scope automatically builds a "recognizer" by analyzing the known recordings.
  3. Finally, the user can use the "recognizer" to quickly detect and identify similar vocalizations in long field recordings.

Song Scope runs on Windows, Mac and Linux and is available for a free evaluation. For more information, visit the company web site at www.wildlifeacoustics.com.
