Worth noticing
Species recognition runs on the recorder; only detections leave the field, while sound and soil need a full year to become directional.

Field notes

The page reports six registered places, six devices, and 3,412 satellite observations; its satellite stream uses Copernicus Sentinel-2 and offers an archive back to 2017. The described field node is a solar 4G box, with wired soil probes or accepted LoRaWAN uplinks. Species recognition runs on-device so raw sound stays in the field. At version 0.1, the satellite channel is live, but sound and soil still need a full year before their readings become directional.
