The University of the State of New York is awarded a grant to develop MoveBank, an integrated animal tracking research system for the the research community consisting of a reliable data acquisition and ingestion system, data stream processing and data mining analytics, and extensible architecture that supports various resource sharing models. The project is design to serve a growing global community of animal tracking researchers interested in collaboration. It will have interfaces to facilitate state-of-the-art of data analysis, mining, modeling and visualization tools. The museum will collaborate with Princeton University, the San Diego Supercomputer Center at University of California San Diego and the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.Studying animal movement is of critical importance to addressing environmental challenges including invasive species, infectious diseases, climate and land-use change. New tracking technologies are allowing more researchers to collect more data more easily, but science lacks the cyberinfrastructure to acquire and manage data in a scalable and reliable fashion and need tools to efficiently analyze and integrate these disparate datasets. This situation is made more challenging by the development of environmental observatories that are generating (or promise to generate) extremely large spatially-explicit datasets with automated methods, including GPS, Automated Radio Telemetry Systems (ARTS), and motion-triggered camera networks. The integration of legacy tracking databases together with real-time observatory data streams has the potential to fundamentally advance the science of animal tracking and animal-based environmental forecasting.

纽约州立大学获得了开发 MoveBank 的拨款，这是一个为研究界提供的综合动物追踪研究系统，由可靠的数据采集和摄取系统、数据流处理和数据挖掘分析以及支持各种资源共享模型的可扩展架构组成。该项目旨在为全球不断增长的对合作感兴趣的动物追踪研究人员社区提供服务。它将具有促进最先进的数据分析、挖掘、建模和可视化工具的界面。该博物馆将与普林斯顿大学、加州大学圣地亚哥分校的圣地亚哥超级计算机中心和伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校合作。研究动物运动对于应对包括入侵物种、传染病、气候和土地利用变化在内的环境挑战至关重要。新的跟踪技术使更多的研究人员能够更轻松地收集更多数据，但科学缺乏以可扩展和可靠的方式获取和管理数据的网络基础设施，并且需要有效分析和集成这些不同数据集的工具。环境观测站的发展使这种情况变得更具挑战性，这些观测站正在使用自动化方法（包括 GPS、自动无线电遥测系统 (ARTS) 和运动触发摄像头网络）生成（或承诺生成）极其庞大的空间明确数据集。遗留跟踪数据库与实时观测数据流的集成有可能从根本上推进动物跟踪和基于动物的环境预测科学。
