Data Analysis Consultation for eBird Data

From January 2014 to December 2019, Suhel Quader created an eBird checklist almost every day while accompanying his kids to the bus stop.  He analysed the data to produce this stunning illustration of the status of the birds in his neighbourhood.

Public data on eBird is a tremendous source of knowledge about bird distribution and seasonality. However, the large quantity of the data available in eBird can be surprisingly difficult to navigate. It is sometimes more efficient to consult an expert on next steps rather than spend time figuring everything out independently. Bird Count India team has some experience in analyzing eBird data and is willing to unblock other analysts in their job to get desired results. But in preparation, we strongly recommend that you start your analysis by watching these self-help videos.
