Bio Acoustic Introduction Training


Research Development UK offers free training sessions introducing the F-POD.exe app to groups interested in participating in the CATT project.As with all data gathering projects, the dataset is wasted if no one uses it or learns from it so this is an important part of our work on CATT.

The Chelonia F-POD software is a powerful tool and a useful skillset for anyone interested in Marine Bioacoustics.

Our session looks at how to use the software, at all levels no one is excluded, this is a Citizen Science approach to long term trend tracking by analysing F-POD data, not a course in scientific techniques. All are welcome.
