  2. GPS animal tracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_animal_tracking

    Tigress with radio collar in Tadoba Andhari National Park, India. GPS animal tracking is a process whereby biologists, scientific researchers, or conservation agencies can remotely observe relatively fine-scale movement or migratory patterns in a free-ranging wild animal using the Global Positioning System (GPS) and optional environmental sensors or automated data-retrieval technologies such ...

  3. Motus (wildlife tracking network) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motus_(Wildlife_Tracking...

    Motus (Latin for movement) is a network of radio receivers for tracking signals from transmitters attached to wild animals. Motus uses radio telemetry for real-time tracking. It was launched by Birds Canada in 2014 in the US and Canada. As of 2022, more than 1,500 receiver stations had been installed in 34 countries. [1]

  4. History of wildlife tracking technology - Wikipedia

    The history of wildlife tracking technology involves the evolution of technologies that have been used to monitor, track, and locate many different types of wildlife. Many individuals have an interest in tracking wildlife, including biologists, scientific researchers, and conservationists. Biotelemetry is "the instrumental technique for gaining ...

  5. Wildlife radio telemetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildlife_Radio_Telemetry

    A U.S. Fish & Wildlife employee uses radio telemetry to track mountain lions. Wildlife radio telemetry is a tool used to track the movement and behavior of animals.This technique uses the transmission of radio signals to locate a transmitter attached to the animal of interest.

  6. Animal migration tracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_migration_tracking

    There are two main systems, the above-mentioned Argos and the GPS. [10] Thanks to these systems, conservationists can find the key sites for migratory species. [10] Another form of satellite tracking would be the use of acoustic telemetry. This involves the use of electronic tags that emit sound in order for the researchers to track and monitor ...

  7. Pop-up satellite archival tag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pop-up_satellite_archival_tag

    Pop-up satellite archival tags (PSATs) are used to track movements of (usually large, migratory) marine animals. A PSAT (also commonly referred to as a PAT tag) is an archival tag (or data logger ) that is equipped with a means to transmit the collected data via the Argos satellite system .

  8. ICARUS Initiative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICARUS_Initiative

    Since the late 1980s animal tracking via satellite has been accomplished through the use of the Argos system, which was historically limited to larger animals and with which ICARUS hopes to compete. [3] One major hurdle to tracking the movements of birds and especially insects is creating a transmitter small enough to place on individual animals.

  9. GeoTime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geotime

    GeoTime can export data to other GIS software such as Google Earth and ESRI ArcGIS via KML format, and to other applications via CSV, as well as capture video of data animations. [5] An ArcGIS extension is available that allows GeoTime to work alongside the popular ArcGIS geographic information system with bi-directional data sharing between ...
