SPOONBILL_VLAANDEREN - Eurasian spoonbills (Platalea leucorodia, Threskiornithidae) in Flanders (Belgium)
Description
<em>SPOONBILL_VLAANDEREN - Eurasian spoonbills (Platalea leucorodia, Threskiornithidae) in Flanders (Belgium)</em> is a bird tracking dataset published by the <a href="https://www.inbo.be/en">Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO)</a>. It contains animal tracking data collected by the LifeWatch GPS tracking network for large birds (<a href="http://lifewatch.be/en/gps-tracking-network-large-birds">http://lifewatch.be/en/gps-tracking-network-large-birds</a>) for the project/study <strong>SPOONBILL_VLAANDEREN</strong>, using trackers developed by Ornitela (<a href="https://www.ornitela.com/">https://www.ornitela.com</a>). The study has been operational since 2022. In total 10 individuals of Eurasian spoonbill (<em>Platalea leucorodia</em>) have been tagged at several locations in Flanders (Belgium), mainly to study their flight behaviour in a hostile environment of wind turbines and high-voltage power lines. Data are automatically synced with Movebank and from there periodically archived on Zenodo (see <a href="https://github.com/inbo/bird-tracking">https://github.com/inbo/bird-tracking</a>).
This dataset was collected using infrastructure provided by INBO and funded by Research Foundation - Flanders (FWO) as part of the Belgian contribution to LifeWatch.
Data have been standardized to Darwin Core using the <a href="https://inbo.github.io/movepub/">movepub</a> R package and are downsampled to the first GPS position per hour. The original data are available in Spanoghe et al. (2024, <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.12623685">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.12623685</a>), a deposit of Movebank study <a href="https://www.movebank.org/cms/webapp?gwt_fragment=page=studies,path=study2313947453">2313947453</a>.
