AOD1845 published

It was the work of a whole year, and now we could finally publish the data set “Historical animal observation records by Bavarian forestry offices (1845)”! With it, the first sub-project of CHE is (provisionally) completed, and we are already working on the next ones.

AOD1845 is the result of mobilizing historical records from a systematic survey of the occurrence of vertebrate species all over the kingdom of Bavaria in 1845. But it is also a collaboration and joint project among institutions and people from Natural Sciences, Humanities, and Research Infrastructure.

We hope that the data set will be widely used!

It is about the Brown bear, the Badger, the Stone marten, the Pine marten, the Eurasian otter. the Lynx, the Wildcat, the Wolf, the Eurasian beaver, the Hamster, the Marmot, the Wild boar, the Red deer, the Fallow deer, the Roe deer, the Chamois, the Bearded Vulture, the Golden eagle, the White-tailed eagle, the Osprey, the Eurasian eagle-owl, the Rook, Alpine chough, the Red-billed chough, the Nightingale, the Wallcreeper, the Western capercaillie, the Black grouse, the Hazel grouse, the Ptarmigan, the Pheasant, the Bustard, the Sandpiper, the Common snipe, the Common crane, the Eurasian bittern, the White stork, the Black stork, the Mute swan, the Whooper swan, the Common wild goose, the Bean goose, the Ducks, the Reptiles, the Common European adder.

Or as DALL-E depicts it:

And stay tuned for the fish!
