Bird Monitoring Data Analyst Needed!
Restore Hibiscus & Bays
Estimated Time: 10 - 20 Hours Over 1 - 2 Months
We need a skilled and passionate volunteer to help us analyse three years' worth of bird monitoring data, specifically five-minute bird count data in the Department of Conservation format, to support our ongoing conservation efforts.
Working location
Proposed project steps with time estimates
The project is not urgent, but we would love to have the analysis in time for our next round of monitoring in November so that we can make improvements to the process if needed. Approximately 40 locations with 5 sites at each, currently in standard DOC spreadsheets. Hours required is an estimate as we are not sure how long this will take.
What We Have In Place
Restore Hibiscus and Bays has been dedicated to restoring urban and semi-rural habitats in the Hibiscus and Bays Local Board area since 2017. Our efforts focus on community-based restoration, predator control, and environmental monitoring. The bird count data you will help analyse will be crucial in informing our restoration planning and measuring the success of our projects, enabling us to enhance our strategies and outcomes for a healthier ecosystem.
