GEDA on the news!
Here a press release by E. Soto on the use of APHIS to identify individuals from digital image. Photo-identification techniques are becoming more and
more popular in monitoring individual behaviour and life-history
tactics. They allow an economic and not invasive method of indiviudal
recongnition, particularly useful to study small species or for those
that cannot be marked without potentially harm individuals or change
their behaviour. The software, APHIS developped by the GEDA and the "Fundación Bit" in 2015 (here), is freely available (here) and it is increasingly being used in may taxa such as invertebrates, mammals, fish, reptiles and amphibians.
