BASIC SOUND ANALYSIS

Online Day Course

To make this more accessible/inclusive, and in order to ensure Covid-security, this course will be held online via interractive video-link.

Modern bat detectors have the facility to record bat calls so that you can examine them on a computer later. Analysis of these 'sonograms' is critical to identifying bats to species level, especially if you are part of an ecological consultancy.

​

If you are new to this process of sound analysis and need to increase your knowledge then this one-day CPD course is for you.

We will take you through the following topics;

​

  • Identification of the main species of UK bats;

  • How to analyse a sequence of calls;

  • What parameters to measure;

  • What programs you can use; and

  • The different detectors available.

​

As a beginners course, you do not need any prior experience with sound analysis; the course is open to all.
