Proyecto AVIS

AVIS project is a collaborative basis of geolocation data from observations of birds in Spain which allows the exchange of information among ornithologists and amateur associations. The application allows mobile devices access to all information and can be done quickly and easily query the database, obtain distribution maps or add new observations to share with other users. The observations are geographically located in 10x10 km grid, following the coordinate system UTM-MGRS. With the application we can get our current position in this format using the localization ability of our device or search the coordinates of any point via Google Maps. All information in the database is also available on the website of proyectoAvis.com. Users familiar with the statistical environment 'R' ravis can also download the package that will incorporate the data into their analyzes.
