CREX_VLAANDEREN - Corn crakes (Crex crex, Rallidae) in Flanders (Belgium) is a bird tracking dataset published by the Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO) . It contains animal tracking data collected by the LifeWatch GPS tracking network for large birds ( https://lifewatch.be/birds ) for the project/study CREX_VLAANDEREN , using trackers developed by Global Messenger ( https://www.gm-tracking.com ) and Ornitela ( https://www.ornitela.com ). The study was operational from 2024 until 2025.

Data are automatically synced with Movebank and from there periodically archived on Zenodo (see https://github.com/inbo/bird-tracking ). No new data are expected. This dataset was collected using infrastructure provided by INBO and funded by Research Foundation - Flanders (FWO) as part of the Belgian contribution to LifeWatch. Additional funding was provided by Agentschap voor Natuur en Bos (ANB). Data have been standardized to Darwin Core using the movepub R package and are subsampled to the first GPS position per …
