Bioacoustics Datasets

A list of bioacoustics datasets. All datasets listed below are easily accessible and can be downloaded in one go. See below for a list of Bioacoustics Online Repositories that offer a more exploratory experience (search and listen), but cannot necessarily be downloaded in one batch. You should also check out the Bioacoustics Datasets Wikidata Project.

BEFORE YOU SUBMIT: is it a dataset or repository?

This website lists two types of data sources: datasets and repositories:
  • Dataset: is pre-packaged for easy access and reproducibility, for example as one or more zip files containing all audio data and all corresponding annotation data. A dataset should also, ideally, be well documented, versioned, and have both a DOI and a license. Without a license the data may not be useable. An example of a dataset that meets all of the aforementioned requirements is Birdvox-full-night.
  • Repository: provides a web-interface (and sometimes also an API) for exploring a large, possibly evolving, collection of data. Repositories are great for data exploration, but usually require manual or automatic scraping to obtain any significant amount of data (when permitted).
If you're still not sure, it might be helpful to browse the lists of datasets and repositories on this website for concrete examples.

​Please determine whether you are submitting a Dataset or a Repository and complete the relevant form accordingly:
