Thinking about the sheer quantity of tracked data of birdsong and bird sightings across all the different apps, and wondering whether anyone has yet collated and analysed it to study the populations, movements, locations and thus habitats of birds...

@sinituulia eBird data has been used in research science.ebird.org/en

@sinituulia I believe a team from your own country did ! The finnish bird app (whose name I can't recall unfortunately) sends the dara back to the researchers who built it, and they analyse it.

@sinituulia I don’t know about across different apps, but Cornell University has “Merlin” which lets you identify birds by bird song and also works as a field guide and birding diary. I think they use that data for those and other purposes.
It’s pretty cool and I use it almost every day.

@sinituulia
Perhaps @gbif knows?
