A global bird radar: open the app, allow your location and discover every species reported around you, with photos, songs and names in six languages.
## the problem
Bird observation data exists (eBird, iNaturalist, Xeno-canto) but lives on separate platforms. Birdetector ingests it, joins it and serves it through a geospatial radar.
## what it does
- Geolocated radar with a 500 m to 50 km radius
- Species cards with photos, top-10 recordings and a K-Means colour palette
- Tour planner with search by common, scientific or family name
- UI in Spanish, English, French, Portuguese, German and Chinese
- Admin dashboard with real-time telemetry
## stack
## notes
Five repositories: API, data ingestor, radar, admin dashboard and social. Built with AI-assisted engineering (Claude Code).
