This article reviews a data validation protocol for Project Feederwatch of the Cornell lab of Ornnithology. Abstract To become more widely accepted as a valuable research tool, citizen-science projects must find ways to ensure that data gathered by large numbers of people with varying levels of expertise are of consistently high quality. Here, we describe a data validation protocol developed for Project FeederWatch, a continent-wide bird monitoring program that is designed to increase researchers’ and participants’ confidence in the data being collected.
