Best Practices for Passive Acoustic Monitoring and Using BirdNET and Raven Pro

Best Practices for Passive Acoustic Monitoring and Using BirdNET and Raven Pro was presented by Yang Center trainers Larissa Sugai and Ben Gottesman to the Black Rail Acoustic Working Group in August 2023. The talk includes:

• an overview of the passive acoustic monitoring pipeline
• acoustic analysis for detecting the calls of single species

Our hope is that you will find the techniques presented here applicable to a variety of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) projects.
