Data Processing and Analysis

We work with the National Data Processing Lab, which is a collaborative effort established to improve data processing for NABat monitoring. The National Data Processing Lab processes and submits your data to NABat and produces a report for you with results for your location.

Equipment Sharing

Are you interested in monitoring but don't have funds to purchase acoustic equipment? The Hub facilitates equipment sharing so that more cells can be monitored throughout the region. Cost should not be a barrier to participation.
