_POWDERMILL_NATURE_DESCRIPTION = """Acoustic recordings of soundscapes are an important category of audio data which |
|
can be useful for answering a variety of questions, and an entire discipline within ecology, dubbed "soundscape |
|
ecology," has risen to study them. Bird sound is often the focus of studies of soundscapes due to the ubiquitousness |
|
of birds in most terrestrial environments and their high vocal activity. Autonomous acoustic recorders have increased |
|
the quantity and availability of recordings of natural soundscapes while mitigating the impact of human observers on |
|
community behavior. However, such recordings are of little use without analysis of the sounds they contain. Manual |
|
analysis currently stands as the best means of processing this form of data for use in certain applications within |
|
soundscape ecology, but it is a laborious task, sometimes requiring many hours of human review to process |
|
comparatively few hours of recording. For this reason, few annotated datasets of soundscape recordings are publicly |
|
available. Further still, there are no publicly available strongly-labeled soundscape recordings of bird sounds which |
|
contain information on timing, frequency, and species. Therefore, we present the first dataset of strongly-labeled |
|
bird sound soundscape recordings under free use license. These data were collected in the Northeastern United States |
|
at Powdermill Nature Reserve, Rector, PA. Recordings encompass 385 minutes of dawn chorus recordings collected by |
|
autonomous acoustic recorders between the months of April through July 2018. Recordings were collected in continuous |
|
bouts on four days during the study period, and contain 48 species and 16,052 annotations. Applications of this |
|
dataset may be numerous, and include the training, validation, and testing of certain advanced machine learning |
|
models which detect or classify bird sounds.""" |
