Home

Features:

Four available methods: Phone pair; Beamforming; Hyperbolic; Crossed bearings. In all methods, simply select a sound in the spectrogram and click mouse buttons to generate a location.

Phone-pair (2 phones)

produces a bearing to the animal
for hydrophone arrays towed from ships, it's ambiguous whether the bearing is left or right of the ship

Frequency beamforming (>= 3 phones)

also produces a bearing
can work better for faint sounds
