Who we are

The Boreal Avian Modelling Centre (BAM) is a collaborative network that develops and disseminates reliable, data-driven and model-based science and products to support bird management and conservation across North America.

Data Products

BAM produces data products that support research and decision-making. These products work toward filling spatial, taxonomic and temporal gaps in our knowledge of migratory birds. Explore BAM’s data products such as maps of bird densities, conservation planning tools, and more. Visit the WildTrax online public repository to access some of the millions of harmonized bird observations that BAM uses to build our data products.

Research

BAM co-produces research and knowledge that helps guide the management and conservation of birds and their habitats. Explore BAM’s research by browsing our scientific publications, technical documents, and annual reports.

Collaboration

BAM’s mission to advance bird conservation is achieved via collaborative science and diverse partnerships. We work broadly across a range of partnerships including federal, provincial and territorial government, academia, non-governmental organizations, Indigenous Peoples, and industry.
