Simultaneously, the Animal Tracking Facility developed a centralised national database (https://animaltracking.aodn.org.au/) to encourage collaborative research across the Australian research community and provide unprecedented opportunities to quantify individual behaviour across a broad range of taxa. This static dataset presents the first 10 years (2007 - 2017) of quality-controlled animal detections collated via the IMOS Australian Animal Acoustic Telemetry Database. The dataset comprises 48.5 million valid detections collected at 1891 receiving stations around Australia, and consists of detection data for 3523 tags deployed on 117 species (fish, sharks, rays, reptiles, and mammals), with distances travelled ranging from a few to thousands of kilometres. To access subsequent additions in a dynamic database, please refer to the following metadata record: https://catalogue-imos.aodn.org.au/geonetwork/srv/api/records/541d4f15-122a-443d-ab4e-2b5feb08d6a0Maintenance and Update Frequency: notPlannedStatement: Historical duplicate transmitter IDs and tag transmission collisions caused by multiple transmitters within range of the same receiver or environmental noise can generate erroneous data thus entailing the development of statistical methods that automatically flag possible invalid detections. We developed a flexible quality control (QC) procedure for acoustic detection data that assesses, for each individual tag (only VEMCO tags were used in this study), the validity of detections based on a computed set of metrics and can be re-used for other acoustic telemetry networks. We applied this QC algorithm to the raw detections stored in the ATF back-end database. For researchers to re-use detection data easily we computed a field, 'Detection_QC', summarising the output of the five tests undertaken on individual detections, i.e. 'FDA_QC', 'Distance_QC', ?Velocity_QC?, 'DetectionDistribution_QC', and 'DistanceRelease_QC'. If five of these fields had a valid QC flag of 1, then 'Detection_QC' was assigned 1, meaning the detection is deemed 'valid'. If only four of these fields had a QC flag of 1 then 'Detection_QC' = 2, meaning the detection is 'likely to be valid'. Detections having three or less than three of these five fields with a QC flag of 1 were considered 'likely invalid' or 'invalid', respectively.&rft.creator=Hoenner, Xavier &rft.creator=Huveneers, Charlie &rft.creator=Steckenreuter, Andre &rft.creator=Simpfendorfer, Colin &rft.creator=Tattersall, Katherine &rft.creator=Jaine, Fabrice &rft.creator=Atkins, Natalia &rft.creator=Babcock, Russ &rft.creator=Brodie, Stephanie &rft.creator=Burgess, Jonathan &rft.creator=Campbell, Hamish &rft.creator=Heupel, Michelle &rft.creator=Pasquer, Benedicte &rft.creator=Proctor, Roger &rft.creator=Taylor, Matthew D. &rft.creator=Udyawer, Vinay &rft.creator=Harcourt, Robert &rft.date=2017&rft.coverage=140,-14 140,-10 144,-10 144,-14 140,-14&rft.coverage=118.00000000000001,-18 118.00000000000001,-16 120,-16 120,-18 118.00000000000001,-18&rft.coverage=120,-16 120,-12 122,-12 122,-16 120,-16&rft.coverage=146,-20 146,-18 148,-18 148,-20 146,-20&rft.coverage=112.00000000000001,-24 112.00000000000001,-20 114,-20 114,-24 112.00000000000001,-24&rft.coverage=114,-34 114,-32 116,-32 116,-34 114,-34&rft.coverage=136,-35.999999999999986 136,-34 140,-34 140,-35.999999999999986 136,-35.999999999999986&rft.coverage=150,-37.99999999999999 150,-32 152,-32 152,-24 150,-24 150,-22 154,-22 154,-34 152,-34 152,-37.99999999999999 150,-37.99999999999999&rft.coverage=144,-40 144,-35.999999999999986 146,-35.999999999999986 146,-37.99999999999999 148,-37.99999999999999 148,-40 144,-40&rft.coverage=150,-42.00000000000001 150,-44 146,-44 146,-42.00000000000001 148,-42.00000000000001 148,-40 150,-40 150,-42.00000000000001&rft.coverage=uplimit=150; downlimit=0&rft.coverage=uplimit=150; downlimit=0&rft_rights=&rft_rights=https://licensebuttons.net/l/by/4.0/88x31.png&rft_rights=WWW:LINK-1.0-http--related&rft_rights=License Graphic&rft_rights=Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License&rft_rights=http://creativecommons.org/international/&rft_rights=WWW:LINK-1.0-http--related&rft_rights=WWW:LINK-1.0-http--related&rft_rights=License Text&rft_rights=Any users of IMOS data are required to clearly acknowledge the source of the material derived from IMOS in the format: Data was sourced from Australia's Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) - IMOS is enabled by the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure strategy (NCRIS).
