Ornithology Data Science
Custom data tools and analytics for birders, ornithologists, and wildlife conservation organizations — powered by eBird, citizen science data, and geospatial analysis.
Ornithology is increasingly data-driven. Platforms like eBird have generated billions of species occurrence records, creating rich opportunities for data science to inform birding strategy, conservation planning, and wildlife research. Harospec Data brings software engineering and data science skills to these datasets — building tools that are both analytically rigorous and accessible to non-technical users.
We have deployed custom bird data tools serving birders across the western United States, with particular familiarity with species distributions in California, Washington state, and the Lake Tahoe / Sierra Nevada region.
