deliverables/index

Current Status

The current status of the project is probably best measured through the status of the deliverables promised in the project proposal. If you are interested in the actual data collected, then please keep checking the data pages.

The deliverables are due at times related to the project start date. For the ChiRoPing project, month 0 was February 2008.

Deliverables

Deliverable D3.1.4 (supply trained bats as required) continues throughout the project.

It should be noted that all modelling takes place iteratively, with initial versions tested and improved in several cycles before the final version is released. Similarly, deliverable D1.3.1 (synchronising and publishing bat data) happens much more continuously than is implied by giving three dates.
