Nigerian Bird Atlas Project (Adhoc Records)
Versão mais recente publicado por A.P. Leventis Ornithological Research Institute (APLORI) em Jun 18, 2025
The dataset for birds in Nigeria was obtained from the Nigeria Bird Atlas Project (NiBAP), which is a member of the continent-wide African Bird Atlas Project (ABAP). The NiBAP's objective is to map all of Nigeria's bird species and describe their status with the help of valuable input from citizen scientists - volunteer members of the public who are keen to contribute by going birding and submitting their observations to the project. The project has been running since the end of 2015. The dataset published here covers adhoc records from the beginning of the project on 2015-05-22 to the present. A number of citizen scientists across the country were involved in collecting and digitizing the data. This was made possible with the aid of a digital data collection mobile application called Birdlasser (https://www.birdlasser.com/) and by following an established bird atlas protocol for the Bird Map Africa. The submitted data is usually pipelined into a central database for the ABAP and displayed on the BirdMap Africa portal (http://www.birdmap.africa) after a thorough vetting process.

Dados Sobre o Projeto
This dataset for birds in Nigeria is obtained from the Nigeria Bird Atlas Project (NiBAP), a member of the continent-wide project, the African Bird Atlas Project (ABAP). The NiBAP aims to map all of Nigeria’s bird species and describe their status with the help of valuable input from citizen scientists—volunteer members of the public who are keen to contribute through going birding and submitting their observations to the project. The project has now been running since the end of 2015. The dataset published here covers adhoc records from the beginning of the project on 2015-05-22 to date. A number of citizen scientists across the country were involved in collecting and digitizing the data. This was possible with the aid of a digital data collection mobile application (Birdlasser: https://www.birdlasser.com/) and by following an established bird atlas protocol for the Bird Map Africa. The submitted data is usually pipelined into a central database for the ABAP and displayed on the BirdMap Africa portal (http://www.birdmap.africa), after a thorough vetting process.

| Descrição do Design | To collect the data, observers spend a minimum of two (2) hours in a pentad to be able to submit a full protocol card. The maximum survey period for a particular pentad is five (5) days after which a new survey can be started for that pentad. Bird species with their unique Spp numbers are recorded as they are seen/heard, following a sequence. Number of species observed are recorded every hour and these records are added to the records in subsequent hour(s) to the last hour (e.g., 10th hour), as the total number of species observed. Each observer has a unique observer number, and for each submission there is a unique card number generated. Date for each record is captured in the dataset to allow spatio-temporal analysis. To collect the data, observers spend a minimum of two (2) hours in a pentad to be able to submit a full protocol card. The maximum survey period for a particular pentad is five (5) days after which a new survey can be started for that pentad. Bird species are recorded as they are seen/heard, following a sequence. Number of species observed are recorded every hour and these records are added to the records in subsequent hour(s) to the last hour (e.g., 10th hour), as the total number of species observed. Each observer (citizen scientist) has a unique observer number, and for each submission there is a unique card number generated. Finally, the date for each record and location is captured at the time of the occurrence to allow spatio-temporal analysis. |

| Área de Estudo | The study area (Nigeria) is divided into pentads, a 9km × 9km square (5' x 5' grid). Each pentad is surveyed for a minimum of two (2) hours or maximum of five (5) days survey period for a full protocol card (or else it is regarded as an adhoc submission). |
|---|---|
| Controle de Qualidade | Individual records are carefully vetted and species captured as out of range records are queried/verified before being added to the database. |
