effort_jprf_2023.RdA sample operational effort table mapping the active recording history of Autonomous Recording Units (ARUs) deployed across 5 sites in John Prince Research Forest, British Columbia, Canada, during May–June 2023. This data documents the baseline monitoring effort, where a given location and date combination is associated with an active ARU device if one or more audio files were successfully recorded.
Format
effort_jprf_2023
A data frame with rows and columns detailing active recording days. Key columns include:
- site
Character string indicating the unique identifier for the ARU deployment location
- date
Date object representing the calendar day of monitoring effort
- n_files
Integer representing the total number of audio files recorded at that location on that day
Details
This dataset acts as the operational counterpart to example_jprf_2023 and is
useful for demonstrating workflow alignment between species detections and true
field effort, specifically for zero-filling non-detections in occupancy modeling.
This dataset was generated directly using the birdnet_get_effort() function.
For more details on the generation parameters, data constraints, and internal
file processing pipelines, please refer to the function documentation.
