Help citizen scientists understand their environment and promote scientific outreach activities
Challenges of Scientific Outreach Activities
Lack of Accessibility
Manual data collection can be costly and requires significant investments in training time and resources, which makes it largely inaccessible for the general population.
Lack of Expertise
Many citizen scientists lack the expertise needed to accurately identify certain species, resulting in misidentification and skewed data. What’s more, it would take years of training and education for volunteers to obtain the proper skills.
Lack of Engagement
Traditional forms of nature education are hands-off, creating a disconnect between participants and the species or environment they are studying.
How Bioacoustics Tools Solve These Challenges
Participation
Acoustic recorders support citizen science efforts by generating interest and increasing participation among students and community members.
Connection
Bioacoustics recorders are a powerful tool for bridging the gap between sound, the natural world, and those studying it – allowing everyday enthusiasts to connect more deeply with nature.
Engagement
Wildlife audio monitoring allows participants to be directly involved without investing significant amounts of time and resources. Capabilities like real-time species identification keep field surveyors engaged throughout the research process.
