The Steering Committee of Wood pigeon club launched experimental research for monitoring migration in real time. For the moment it has been presented on an experimental basis an app for smartphones, tablets and PCs, free for all. Once you have registered, you can participate, contribute to data collection of personal observation and to have every evening all the necessary information on the pass in Italy and in one's own municipality and province.
They will also be available on a weekly basis analysis and forecasts. The start of the project is scheduled for next October 1st, therefore in less than two months. But how exactly does the application work? The registration serves to number the various signalers. Sightings can be recorded live or by filling out a form and registering everything once you return home.
The data entry concerns times, size of the flock of wood pigeons and heights: in the evening, usually after 21, it will be possible to examine all the progress of the previous hours, in the area of residence and in Italy. Obviously this operation is still in an experimental phase, consequently changes may be made before the official debut.
