[R] fisheries acoustics

[McClatchie, Sam (PIRSA-SARDI)]

Hello Bruno

Your query is very broad, but it sounds as if you have not heard of a Windoz
based application package called Echoview
<http://www.sonardata.com/sonardata/default.shtm>. Of course there are about
half a dozen to a dozen or more analysis packages out there that have been
developed by acoustics groups (from the IMR Bergen Integrator to NIWA's
ESP2), but Echoview is becoming something of a standard.

R is not the best tool to deal with the very large files that consitute raw
acoustic data, and there isn't much point when there are good packages out
there already.

Hi, member-list

i'm searching for packages or routines to analise fisheries acoustics data.
Something make  import data of scientific ecosound (EK500) of paralel 
port, filter signal, analyse pattern of pixel fish shoals...

Is there  someone work with this ? If no, why dont make colective effort 
to do this?? (package fish_acoustic).

Thanks
Marcelo
