Manipulate your observations with a spreadsheet

With the new "raw spreadsheet" export format, you can save a file with all the log and observation information (TSN number included for added compatibility) in a form usable in a spreadsheet program. You can then benefit from the functions such a software provides.

Choose species and spots even faster

To save even more time when writing a log or when doing searches, choose species and spots in the recently observed species list or in the recently surveyed spots list. Or choose one of the spots you have defined as "favorites".

Note quickly breeding activity and status from Atlas codes

Natalog 2 uses the EOAC (European Ornithological Atlas Committee) nomenclature to help you choose a code in a list where the meaning of the code is clearly presented. Natalog 2 will then fill in the breeding status, and, if it is possible, the matching breeding activity.

Delete a whole log in one operation

 Speedy, rich, easy, friendly : know more about Natalog's qualities

Natalog, the first friendly system for naturalist data integration

Note, manage, transmit and integrate
naturalist observations. Fast.

Here is at last a friendly software that allows birdwatchers to easily note, manage and transmit their sightings.
And that avoids manual capture to societies or scientific institutions, while making observations compatible with the the databases they already use.
Natalog represents a really new concept for naturalist data management.

Note easily

For the beginning or expert
birdwatcher

Natalog :
click and note!

The birdwatcher uses a simple and friendly software to note his observations. He keeps them on his computer. He can file, retrieve, consult them at anytime. He can print, export and transmit them by email as many times as he wants in various formats.

Natalog allows you to note quantities, behaviours, and free comments. Your spots, your logs and your observations can be easily geotagd. It is then very simple to indicate where you have made an observation.

Tap and note!
With the Natalog Notes module shipped with Natalog 2, you only need to tap your screen of your iPhone® to note your observations directly on the field. Then, when you have synchronised Natalog Notes and Natalog 2, you will treat your field log as any other Natalog 2 log.

Evaluate Natalog free
The evaluation version is fully functional during one month or until you have noted 300 observations (then, you keep access to your data, but some functions are not activated).

Observe usefully

For the birding society
or the scientific institution

Discover the possibilities
of the new "xls-STD" format

Natalog 2 proposes a new format for log export called "xls-STD". Data is presented in a table, each line stands for an observation, all essential information concerning each observation is repeated on each line of the table.

Spreadsheets users will take from the exported log all the profit provided by the numerous functions of such software (Microsoft Excel®, for example). It becomes very easy to adapt data created with Natalog to the needs of big databases, which generally import spreadsheet files. You can change order of data, concatenate fields... You can even create charts!

To understand the "xls-STD" format
Natalog proposes a sample file in which a log in the "xls-STD" format has been pasted into a Microsoft Excel® table. With simple calculations, data is transferred on a second sheet to match a "typical" birding society real input mask. Without being an expert, these calculations can be copied and modified to give other results.

Download the sample file

* Natalog Notes requires FileMaker Go® for iPhone® that must be purchased separately on the App Store®.

Natalog works in english and french.
Apart from the scientific name in latin, the species are presented in french, english, german, dutch, spanish or italian.
