Research andMonitoring data collection methods field-based (3)
Direct Observation
Trapping and Capture
Remote Camera Trapping
directly observeandrecorddata on species presence abundance behavior andhabitatuse
Direct Observation
traps and nets are used to capture organisms for identification measurement tagging or collecting biological samples tissue hair etc
Trapping and Capture
cameras are set up in the fieldtocaptureimages orvideos ofwildlifeactivity
Remote Camera Trapping
Research andMonitoring data collection methods technology -based (3)
Remote Sensing
Acoustic Monitoring
Environmental DNA eDNA
satellites and aerial imagery provide valuable data on landcover habitat types andchanges overtime
Remote Sensing
recording devices capture sounds of animals like bird calls bat echolocation or whale vocalizations
Acoustic Monitoring
water samples are collected and analyzed for traces of DNA shed by organisms
Environmental DNA eDNA
R esearch andMonitoring DATA COLLECTION METHODS Other Method(2)
Communitysurveys
Citizen science
local communities with knowledge of the area can be interviewed to gather information on species presence historical trends and threats
Communitysurveys
Engaging volunteers indatacollection efforts can expand the scope of monitoring and provide valuable insights
Citizen science
TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION in Monitoring (2)
Remote Sensing
Geographic InformationSystems GIS
is the use of satellites and other airborne platforms to collect data about theEarths surface
RemoteSensing
can be used to map the distribution of biological resources assess habitat quality and monitor changes in landuse
