Design and Implementation of Chinese Bird Data Resources Platform

Abstract:

China has abundant wild bird resources. Many bird lovers collect a large quantity of bird images, audio and video data. However, there is no such comprehensive platform that can be used to publicize, share and apply these data resources. In view of this, the paper attempts to design and implement a Chinese bird data resources platform, which not only aims to offer a channel of uploading bird data, but also to review the distribution area and time of bird species on the map and to search the image data of bird species and the relationship between species in a dynamic and flexible way. Also, various identification methods like DNA barcoding, morphological features and image analysis are offered based on in-depth data analysis and research to identify the exact species. This system tends to provide a simple but convenient integrated application platform for those bird research workers, bird lovers and the public as a whole.
