Black Grouse Visual System Data for Collision Mitigation

275.3 KB of data from a study combining behavioral assays and molecular approaches to understand the visual system of the Black Grouse (Lyrurus tetrix). Research by Simon Potier, Marjorie A. Liénard, and colleagues informs strategies for reducing bird collisions with aerial infrastructure. The dataset includes files in RMD, XLSX, FASTA, CSV, and RTF formats.

Use Cases

• Modeling detection limits of aerial objects based on described visual field measurements and spatial resolution.
• Analyzing spectral sensitivity for marker perception based on the characterization of four cone visual pigments.
• Informing conservation policy on collision mitigation based on combined behavioral and molecular findings.

Strengths

• Data is derived from a multi-method study combining behavioral assays and molecular characterization.
• Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0, facilitating reuse.
• Includes multiple file formats (RMD, XLSX, FASTA, CSV, RTF) suggesting diverse data types.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is small (275.3 KB), indicating limited scope.
